Wheels offsets

Any semi-informed guesses as to wheel offsets?

I've met someone who saw 2 uncamouflaged 1M's at the factory in Leipzig coming of the production line. He saw a white one with "stock" wheels and the Valencia Orange one with the M3 Competion Wheels. Strange because i thought there were only 19" rims but apparently not.
This was during a visit at the factory and the guide told them they were very lucky that they saw that. Of course it was ( as usual ) forbidden to take pictures in the factory.
The hoods were open and BMW M POWER with the known colours was clearly marked on the engines. He heard them start up and immediately took them away. They sounded very E46 M3 wise he said.

With the 1M having the exact same wheels as the M3 it would be very simple for bmw to offer the same wheel options as the M3. I can't imagine why they would only offer them with 19's.

Sweet!
I have a set of new bronze 19" TE37 in M3 sizes in my garage...
Now need a 1M to justify this useless (so far) investment!
