The dealer finally called and said that my order for my 2006 530xi went into the system today. I should find out the production number in the next couple days. Listed below is a quick outline of my purchase. My MSRP came to something like $57070. Does anyone know what wheels come with the Xi Sport package?

Im really hoping so. Whats weird is that the Sport Package on the 530xi only costs $700 compared to the $2300 for the 530i. I know that the suspension components are not included, but I hope at least the wheels are.

Per the ordering information posted a couple of days ago, I believe the 530xi Sport Package only includes the sport seats and shadowline trim -- hence, the significantly lower price. Hope this is helpful,

I was afraid of that. It just gives me an excuse to get a nice summer set of wheels.

That's odd. I think it was shown at the Detroit Auto show with the 123s which is what lead me to my conclusion. Maybe they're the wheels shown on this wagon?

I think these are the same ones on the test 530xi at the media junket in Finland.

All I know is that it is ordered and I have a valid production number that I entered into Owners Circle to track the progress (currently says 'On Order'). I believe mine is part of the dealerships first allocation. Im going to the dealership on Saturday to finalize things. I will fill in the gaps then.

I found out that the style 123 18" wheels (included in the 530i sport package) are not included in the 530xi sport package, but are optional. I had them modify my order to get the 123's, but now I will have to invest in a winter set.
