Pic Request: 17" Wheels on 135i

[Uptown Bully]

EDIT: Nevermind...I ordered the Sport Package, they come with the 18" wheels. Right?

Yes, 17" wheels are a no cost option on the 135.

Yeah, at first I had to go with the 17" wheels and no Sports Package to save costs and get a better monthly payment. So...I wanted to see a 135i with them. But then it dawned on me I came up with an extra $1,100 and got the Sport Package so I won't be getting the 17s after all.

I still would like to see them on an 135i though. Just for the fun of it.

Just so we are clear. Selecting 17in wheels on the 135i saves you no money. The 135i comes with 18in style 264 wheels regardless if you get the sport package or not. All the sport package gets you on the 135i is M shifter, M steering wheel, shadowline trim, and sport seats.

Oh. I see where my confusion comes from. On the Build One section on BMWUSA, the 17" tires are $0, but there are two other wheel options that are over $1000. I never bothered to look close enough to see that they are different from the 264s. But if you select the 17" wheels from the site, it removes the Sport Package.

Maybe I'm still confused.

Pardon me for my ignorance, but are non-sport 128i wheels 16" ?

That's odd that it deselects the sport package. You would think that you could get both 17in wheels with all-seasons and the sport package if you wanted. Could be a glitch in the configurator.

They are 17in in both the non-sport and sport package 128i coupes in the US. (different styles and width though)

On the 128i convertible the non-sport wheels are 16in.
