E70 19 wheels and chrome window strips

I have on order a new E70 2007 BMW X5 3.0si-Premuim,

The car was ordered with 18" wheels but now it will come with 19" wheels for some unknown reason??
My question is, will the 19" be more bumpy on the road??

Further i would like to fit the chrome window strips of the 4.8 to my car , can that be done ??

Any reply is welcome

you get 19" wheels with the sport package...the sidewalls on the 19" will be stiffer because of the lower profile, so expect a slightly stiffer ride

and you can do the chrome window trim, it was possible on the e53

Plead with the dealer to ask for it to be done at the factory. You will have a heart attack when you find out the costs to add later !

I was previously able to change a new 323i from (standard) chrome to black at no cost from the factory but to do later it was LOTS (thousands !!!)...

Have fun !
