Wheel Choices

I am still debating wheel choices for my X5 50i M Sport. I am not crazy about the 19s that came on it. My thoughts are either:
1. Stick with the 19s for summer tires and get some 18s for the bit of winter driving that I'll do.
2. Find winter tires for the 19s. Apparently Michelin Alpine tires are available in the right size, but I need to confirm availability. And then go with 20s early next spring. Either the BMW style 336 or 333M. Most aftermarket wheels are too gaudy but I like several of the TSW styles seen here: TSW suv wheels and rims. Does anyone have an opinion on the TSW wheels?

I want a little more black on the X5 such as the performance grills. I don't want completely black wheels but I think I'd like the TSW Jarama.

Have to admit i dislike those wheels also - the M-sport package is sweet except the wheel options in my book. I would run those as the winters and get like you said, some 333 or 336's would be much better
