Ordering 2018 GC M Sport

Hi all, I am ordering a 2018 LCI GC with the M package option that comes with 18" wheels. Has anybody ordered a 2018 LCI GC with the M Sport package and 19" wheels? I would prefer 19s but they are having trouble getting the computer to allow that. Thanks

I haven't, but you need 19s. Worth every penny. 18s look so small on the car, especially with MSport. Also the 19s come with the awesome blue MSport Brakes.

M sport brakes are only for the track pack.

There shouldn't be any issue ordering 19s with M sport pack. Thats what Im doing because 18s look like toy wheels.

I'm ordering the 2018 GC with M Sport Package. I was contemplating the 19" 704M and the only wheels that are not attached to a package are the FERRIC GREY DOUBLE-SPOKE WHEELS.
704M ORBIT GREY are part of the ZTR Track Handling Package.

18" wheels just look fine, no big difference from 19"

Besides I had problems with 19" wheels in my last car, F10 535i with bubbles in side walls of RFTs. Probably because the car was so heavy

I didn't want to take a risk this time, and am completely happy with 18" wheels.

I'm ordering the same color combo! good choice! My dealer isn't showing an option for 19" wheels unless I get the track package. Also, you have to add adaptive cruise control to get the M sport. That's a waste in LA.

Maybe I'll just keep my BBS FIs and put those on!

You already ordered 19s no problem with the M Sport package?

Yes. You can see them in the USA preview build:
http://fsdemo2.bmwusa.com/standard/c...modelcode=184V

Select the M Sport Package then within the package choose:
19" M Ferric Grey Double-Spoke Wheels Style 704 M with Mixed Performance Tires

You cant combine 19" M Orbit Grey with adaptive cruise control for some strange reason

I have to check my order, because I didn't see active cruise control as part of my build and I'm getting the M Sport Package. I'm also in L.A.
I'm staying with the 18" wheels mix set up. The streets will beat up the 19" wheels in a heartbeat.
My SA didn't have any issues adding options during my build, we went back and forth until I had what I wanted. Any option that was tied to another package he was able to let me know first. I did my build by email since my SA is also my friend.
