I personally went with 20s, but i had a few reasons
1. M may not take 19'', due to bigger brakes
2. 20s look better
3. 20s ride better/sportier on dry (that's 90% of the winter in tri-state)
4. I had much smaller sidewall on my 335i and did just fine

Remember that blizzard last year? I drove through it in my 335i from Philly to upstate with zero issues. And this was just RWD car with low clearance

So, 20s vs 19s is a wash on this car
