Honestly, I preferred the old wheels. Here's why...

-The wheels are simply too large for this car. Yes, I have seen 20's on a Z4 in person and they don't work. Especially with a lip. The Z4 looks better with a concave setup imo.

-The offsets look completely wrong for the car. I'm not sure what your offsets are, but the wheels seem pretty tucked in. I can only imagine that lowering the car will make them look even less flush.

-Your old setup looked incredible. Just because they were "too stock" doesn't mean they weren't the better looking wheel. Sometimes change isn't always a good thing.

Now, I want to add that your car with the stock wheels is one of the main reasons I'm debating between a white Z4 or the new 1M. I absolutely love your car with the stock 19's. I just don't feel your new wheels fit the lines of this car. Obviously you love the look and that is great. I've had sets of wheels on my z4m coupe that I liked, but others didn't. It happens. In any case, i do look forward to seeing more pics. Maybe that will change my mind...
