18" staggered

i'm mad....every single nice set of wheels comes in 19" sizes HRE, Enkreuz, DPE... what can i choose for a 18" staggered setup besides M6 and CSL reps for e90, seriously?!
i will take delivery in sept '08 so i have plenty of time to find the right setup...

The thing is that when people want to go with aftermarket wheels (i.e. upgrade them), they typically go with 19's or larger. Thus the majority of the popular wheels are 19s + so I can understand your frustration. Is there a reason why you dont want to go with 19s?

you will regret getting 18 inch wheels. having the 19 inch wheels is only a very small marginal difference and they hold up very well in pot hole cities. Besides BMW's are big cars and going with 18 they will look too small.
