I headed over to my tire and rim guys and asked for their reco and they suggested 20" square or staggered if I wanted to go down that way.

I had the 20" staggered setup on the F15 and I liked the look. My concern is I have the 22" 742M for the Summer and obviously love that look very much.

The option I'm considering the 20" staggered setup

Rims - 20x9 front and 20x10.5 rear (Replika R233 in gloss black)

Tires - 275/45/20 & 305/40/20 (Michelin Pilot Alpine 5 SUV)

One photo is the Gunmetal but he indicated he could get the gloss black. The R233 seem similar looking to the 742M.

What are you guys looking to do?
You have M Sport package in Canada which means M Sport brakes — I don't think you have a viable 19" choice, 20" appears to be a minimum (notwithstanding that it seems the 19" spare does fit per AndroidRobot ).

For myself, I am going for 20"x9.5"' square setup for the winter — aftermarket black rims with spacers to basically get stock positions. Tires will be Blizzak DM-V2 275/45R20.
