Width and offset: I know your question is about 20-inchers, but 30i model owners and those looking for 19" winter wheels may see this, so let me cover all X3 & X4 wheels. These numbers are for OE BMW wheels.
7" width offset 22mm
7.5" width offset 32mm
8" width offset 27mm
8.5" width offset 30mm
9.5" width offset 43mm
So for a 20" wheel for a M40i the stock/OE offsets are 27 front, 43 rear

Thanks so much Larry and the rest of you for your responses too. I'm looking at some Savini forged wheels in black which is like $1600 for all four with tax installed etc ordered thru discount tire. Now that I have the offsets, I'll stick with only decreasing them by 2-4mm since I'm going up to a 9" front wheel and 10" rear wheel width (and likely later will increase the tire size width a bit too). I don't want it to stick out past the fenders really, just want a bit more aggressive stance. I initially wanted a wheel that was "busier", but decided to go more minimalist on it so that I can see the blue M calipers better. I'll post pics once they arrive and get installed.
