NO 19" Wheel Option (style 230) : Just confirmed

doubleapex · 08-22-2007, 05:55 PM

Sorry to dissapoint, but BMW has taken that option away for the entire build of US Spec MY08 335i cp's.

...no reason given for the removal, we can only speculate supply issues...maybe we'll get them in MY09

Shame, those are some good looking wheels...

It's still on the BMWUSA website as an option.

Plz post a pic of this new directive.........

Otherwise we cannot assume anything...............

Yeah, that would appear to be the case... I'll keep hoping.

My dealer just confirmed it with me, they removed it from my order and the option is no longer appearing in Owners Circle on my car. He said they could not produce the wheel.

It would have been interesting to see if the tire/wheel protection would have still been $390 like it was for my style 189's.

Probably no biggie, the width's were the same as a ZSP with 18's, so you've got 1" less rubber and more wheel.

My favorite BMW OEM is the 172M's on a coworker's 550i--dunno, love the deep dish and the thin spokes.

I've heard nothing of this.

BMW of Bellevue confirmed with me too. The 19" option is now gone.

DAMNIT.
