Hey guys new here so go easy 
I am about to pull the trigger on a new 6 but kind of grossed out by the yukky dark red trim running all across the dash.
Especially when the steering wheel etc have much nicer fake alloy looking trim.
I asked my local dealer here in NZ if you can swap out the trim, but they just said thats how it is. Typical attitude here in lil ol NZ but I digress.
Thing is I have seen a photo of what I want, actually it's shown in the new 3, so I think it probably exists:
I think it looks *much* nicer especially on my choice of colour which is white pearl.
So turning to the wheels, I'm keen to take view on this but here's what I've picked out, DTM Convex in Titanium finish. 19s are shown here but I'd go for 20s I think:
You can see some other cars with these rims on this link, some have more offset which looks pretty sweet. Dunno if 20x9 is gonna be too wide, I haven't looked into that yet.

Finally, tires.
As many roads in NZ are rough as guts chip seal, I am worried about tire roar so any tips on picking out a low noise tire that would be awesome. Also it rains here a *lot* thanks to the sub tropical climate.
I heard these were actually effective:

But I dunno what you guys think?
Again, sorry for noob style question and borderline trolling, but I haven't really done my homework on tires yet. Just keen on any advice if anyone has experience to offer on this.
Cheers
