BMW LL-01FE or LL-17FE+ (0w-30 vs 0w-20)

I was wondering your thoughts about the two grades of oil. I do my own oil changes and I am more concerned about protection than fuel economy.

According to the G20 manual, it calls for either 0w-20 (LL-17 FE+) and 0w-30 (LL-01 FE). Which oil grade would you use?

For my car, I opted for Castrol Edge 0W-30. Like you, I was more interested in protection than fuel economy.
