If your only concern is the look/style, then yes, there's a lot of wheels that looks very similar to each other. There's a reason why there are so many of them, it's because it's a good style for the car.
Now, if the concern extends to durability (thnk Breytons), performance/fitment (heavy stock/VMR wheels/big 19"ers), and price (forged...), then there isn't that many choices, even for the style which got the abundant options so far. EC-7 is by far the only choice that gives all 3 of the above and some concativity to boot. For a car with 1-off size/offset combo like the 1er's, just can't complain. Now if you want more wheel styles to choose from, you just basically have bought the wrong car...
