Apologies for my ignorance, shortly to become the owner of a black 430d x drive m sport.

I have ordered 19" 442 wheels but not really loving the colour i would appreciate some advice please, am i better to have the wheels colour changed or buy an off the shelf ready painted black set? Also not really understanding the meaning of offset and et, can i put a 20" set of wheels without having to make any alterations? Thanks in advance

If you want to refresh the finish of your wheels, i would powder coat them " Not Paint " It will last a lot longer. If you decide to go 20s , stock height or lowered on springs , you will be fine.

Solid advice here ^^

I would go for a cheaper way before spending money on whees, tires and suspensions. 442 is nice looking rim. I would paint the wheels with 2 tones . Leave the polished aluminum untouched but paint the ferric grey a bit darker.
