Can you order 135i with factory 182 black rim instead of silver??

My car is going to be alpine white 135i, and there's nothing more beautiful than black rims to go with white.

now my question is, seeing how BMW has the 182 black rim as an accessory, does anyone know if it would be possible to ask the dealer to remove stock silver rim and install the 182 black rim?

would this be the same price or will i have to pay full price? It wouldnt' make sense for me to pay full price for the black rims if I'm customizing it to what i want right? But if it is an extra few hundred, then i think i can live with that.

thanks

you can get any bmw wheels on there, you just have to pay full price for them on top of the price of the car.

so its cheaper to just buy the car with the wheels it comes with and sell those and buy the other rims yourself.

Stupidly, BMW only gives you virtually* no factory options for 135i wheels in the US. If you want different BMW wheels you have to buy them through the parts department at exhorbitant prices. Many people choose to go with 3rd party wheels instead.

* - The one option there is for the 135i is a smaller, 17" wheel. It's an oddball option since the only reason you would want this wheel is for winter driving through snow in which case you would want snow tires not the all-seasons it comes with. It might be nice if you ordered your car for winter delivery and it came with snows, but you then need to plan on buying performance wheels and tires in the spring.
