As of now, it doesn't even show a price difference between the two wheel options. I really want the 225M wheels. Should i just cancel my order and redo it? Dealer does not like that request! lol. They said i could order them seperatly, but it's $5,000!!! It's only $1,000 if you get the upgraded wheels when you order the car. Maybe someone here is about to order a 335i with the M sport package... you could order it with the 225M wheels and i'll trade you my 193M and give you an extra $1,000 to make up the difference. I'm really upset over it. What would you guys recomend I do?
There have been LOTS of problems in the UK with these rims cracking under normal driving-BMW have refused to acknowledge the problem.....some UK members have taken legal action. Not ordering these wheels may be a blessing in disguise! I would order the OEM Performance 269 wheels and sell the 193Ms
Check out the UK forums.
