Guys quick question re wheels and tires
BMW will swap out for around $5k ..does this sound reasonble? or am I being stitched up? Glad I ddint want the 20's now as I would hate to think what that 'swap out' cost would be Anyway - do any of you have the 19' Y211 ? if so, what RFT come standard? (suspect bridgestone?) and what do they drive look, feel like etc (18's have Conti's) thanks for any feedback |

shit guys ..I think you're right on the stitch-up ..
I havent signed anything so might just tell them to forget about it .... will save time for delivery etc as well .. an no doubt they'd skimp on proper alignment etc when fitting the new ones ...
for the sake of a few cosmetic differences I reckon I'm better off keeping the $5k in my pocket ... perhaps put it towards the 2012 model thanks again for input ..its helped me make a decision .. |

sorry Anzer, didnt mean to turn you off the wheels. when you buy a 100k car, you need to make sure your happy with what you got. IMO no point saving 5k and not being 100% happy with the looks. Get what you want the first time! only reason i thought it was a stitch up is because from what i remember the 215 21's are around 8900 i think. let us know how you go

agred ..but $5k
is still a lot of money for anyone ... I think if they came back and said something like $2k then it would make sense ... they would basically be taking my brand new 35d 18's off (when car arrives in around 3 weeks) and swapping over 19's .... so I would have thought that the price difference between the two sets would be more like $2k - rather than $5,530 fitted ....I would like the 19's but might just save the $$ and reinvest in future X5 upgrade fund circa 2012 / 13 .. and I;m sorta use to the 18's as they are still an ok lookingf wheel/tire combo ... with option to put chains on if I want to take kids skiing

True 5k is a lot of money.. Not sure if this would work, but possibly you could buy some from the u.s. And get them shipped. That way you could keep your 18' for the snow or flog them off to fund the 19's. Has anyone else tried this?

Good suggestion, perhaps once 18 tires are ready for replacement

you pay $5000 for 19' swap out? which dealer is that
I've got 21' double spoke black on my car and I paid $3000, beside trading in 18' standard + 19' included in Sport package. Maybet it helps when you negotiate the price.
