Ive just sold my E90 that was on 17's and the ride was sodding awful to put it politely, on 20's I think would cry!

Unless they are a specific design that you can only get in the 20's personally id get the 19's on the car, think they will look too big on a 3 series coupe!

Got 18's on mine and anything bigger for me would not look right, also as previous poster said the ride would be terrible. Bad enough on 18's.

I had 21's on my S class and it looked the business. Made the already great car look even better. But they were a constant hassle, always losing tyre pressure and very easy to kerb on such a long car.

One day, after a drive; I noticed the rear tyres had been shreading themselves, I was doing some good speeds and I think in a few more miles; the tyres would have come off the wheels. Hardly any tyre places could get the actual tyres on the rims because of how thin the sidewall was!

I went back to the 19" AMG standard ones asap after that. Car doesn't look anywhere as good, but it's a lot less hassle for a car which is used quite frequently.
