One possible advantage of ordering the 20's is that you get a 155mph top speed due to the tire rating. The 19's factory-limit you to 130. If that's a concern.
That's unfortunate that they limit the car with the non 20" wheel option. That being said, this car does not inspire confidence at 130 so it's probably better that way lol
I've had my wife's M35i up to 140 MPH on the autobahn and was surprised at how well it handled that speed.
