209 wheels

I was at the dealer this morning and I'm getting breake the deal on X5 4.8 cause I argured w/ a wheel selection issue.

I hate the look of the 209's (sorry 209 owners, this is me I'm sure they are OK technically) and I'm ready to get any other design whatever the cost, but dealer says that there is no way to install any other than standard 209's if I won't buy the sport package. Huh !

I just don't want to add sport package and want "any"other 18" or 19" design than 209's. (like 210, 211, 213 etc) Not fancy 21" ones. I'm ready to pay $1,000 extra too. Is it a stupid offer? What is wrong with it?

Any experiece? What should I do to not to get 209's but not to get sport package as well?

It is a ~$70K car, and it's a big investment for me. Why should I accept the wheels I don't like? Is it possible that BMW can not offer any other design with extra $1K? Dealer says NO !
