I actually don't mind the 666 wheels but IMO the 437s just fit the car so much better.
Did exactly the same, for multiple reasons other than solely cosmetic.

Can you send me pics of your car? Looking to go with the 437s on my comp package.

Much prefer the 19's over 20's for ride quality and handling having driven the f80 zcp with both setups. YMMV on aesthetics. I stay away from those religious battles. Can't go wrong either way.

Yep. Here you go. Sorry they're not great. Pics taken after it was detailed and opticoat applied. Note that the car has the M Performance Exhaust with the Titanium tips.

I traded my 666M setup for a black 437m setup today. (And some cash).

Anyway I have not noticed a ride difference worth mentioning between the 19s and 20s.

I bought some Signature Wheels and I figured I would recoup some cash and store the 19s instead of the 20s. Just waiting for the MPS4S to be out so I can put em on.

Great looking car! I find the 437s suit the car and compliment the lines far better than the 666s. Do you have spacers on?

Thanks. I have 10mm spacers ready to install on all 4 corners, but just haven't had time to pull the wheels off and put them on. Hopefully this weekend and will take some better pics.

Can some one confirm that Style 437M black wheels come with Non-RFTs?
I know for sure that 666M come with Non-RFT. Thanks

I don't think any M3/M4's come with RFT's.

Somebody needs to fix the website...

Honestly I would go with whichever hides the brake dust best... although I do need to see what the tire choices are these days... after bending the front ZCP 20's on my E90 I was lucky to find slightly bigger tires that had a tiny bit more cushion (and grip).
