Poll: Favorite OEM Wheels

Hey Everyone!

Need to swap out my stock 17" wheels on my '06 Toledo Blue X5 for something new but want to stick with X5/X6 style rims only.
Want to find out what everyone's fav's are.
My preference is 19" or 20" (although living in the northeast i'm a little afraid to go w/ 20's because of the roads and weather).
Also not a fan of chrome.
So far i've narrowed down to the following:
Going from left to right are:
1. 19" Star spoke 132
2. 19" V spoke 63
3. 20" Star spoke 87
4. 20" V spoke 168
5. 20" X6 style 215? (found on ebay)

I like the 168s the best - if you're willing to go to 20s. I wussed out with my E53 and did 132 19s.

Your first pic is not style 132

For me:
Pre facelift ---> 87 then 214
facelift ---> 168 then 215
