I was thinking of getting the Beyern Ritz for mine, but the 18's. I am worried that the ride quality would suffer with the 19s. How is the ride?

Yup! Was on the wheel page too, but there's an E46 on there now. The wheels are lighter than OE, but the tires are probably a downgrade from stock. I haven't had a chance to really push it past any limits yet, but still had full handling confidence with some speedy canyoning.

The road noise is a bit louder, but that might just be the tire we went with. I actually think the ride quality is still great, but that might be mostly due to the adaptive suspension. Personally, I would go with the 18" myself. I like a meatier tire look, and you'll likely improve over OE ride quality. My wife likes bigger wheels on her cars though so as the saying goes... happy wife, happy life!

Gloss Black! And yes they're stock. We actually ordered the black OE grilles, but our sales guy messed up the order.
