535i Old Sport Wheels RETURN to Production!

I couldn't believe my eyes today at my local dealer...

2013 535xi with .... 19 inch y spokes from the old sport pack! I snapped a shot just to confirm. On the sticker its listed as an option. included.

Could this be the new standard wheel now????

Is there a way to get the old sport wheel?

Maybe there is a chance to rebuild the old sport pack non m sport car! excited to say the least.

No... its not. 19 inch V spoke. I typed the wrong Letter...

How the heck can I post from iphone to bimmerpost app. The v spoke is the exact 19s from 11-12 sport pack. Sales guy says they are coming in like this.

How could I get a sport steering wheel? He said it might be standard on the premium pack now? Was he full of it? Or is LCI forcing BMW to give away free parts! Might be tempting now!

I have a 2011 535i Sport package April 2010 production. My wheels don't look like the Y-spoke ones in the previous picture. Close, but not quite the same.

Bingo!

Those are the ones! So the question is... are the radials still coming through.
is there a way to email someone here the pictures so they can post them?

honestly... silver with these wheels is a beautiful site. I knew some 535i owners could chime in. I hope bmw brought them back. next year's lci probably will mess with this look. i might sound completely crazy, but i think I want in on a 13 non m sport if i can find sport wheel option, wheels and comfort seats. essentially, its the old sport pack minus the black headliner.

I learned the hard way waiting wasn't right. Maybe i can have my chance at this look before it goes away completely with 2014 LCI. Sure it may get hp bump, LED headlights... but there is something magically beautiful about the 11-13 with these sport wheels. Best design bar none for the 5 saloon.

I totally agree. I like these 19" sport wheels over the M-Sport wheels. They are also more rare and unique as most do either un-sporty or M-Sport

Looks like style 331.

This is an unusually heavy wheel at 16.1/16.3 kg according to http://felgenkatalog.auto-treff.com/ This is almost 2kg more than the style 351 that comes with the M sport package.

I've been thinking about ordering the non-M sport 550. Standard 18" style 330 wheels are only 12.6/12.9. They aren't much to look at but they might work better in the real world than some of these extra-heavy 19s.

I agree i actually prefer these over my stock 351 Msport wheels.

Good thing is that i'm sure you can find a used set or someone willing to trade their Msport wheels for these.

I think if you are even ordering a 5 series now, there might be an input on the computer...
