I too have an LCI 525d M Sport. I agree the engine is very smooth and revs with ease. I've heard comments on here about the new 520d but, as good as it is, it can't beat the straight 6 for refinement, sound and driving experience, even if the recent power hike put it on paper very close to the 525d.
Regarding the wheels - no contest for me - I'd have gone with the wheels also, and in fact did in a similar way to you - couldn't stretch any further. To be honest, the standard lights on the LCI are fine. I've had Xenon lights on cars before and they are excellent, bu the standard lights don't disgrace themselves. Wheels all the way.....just look at them + non RFT's - Enough said for me.

I should also add that my wife's car also has the standard 135Ms, two cars in the drive with the same wheels? No.
As far as engines are concerned if anything I wanted more not less, it was close run thing between the 525d MSport and a 530d SE (with some star spoke 246s)
but the looks of the sport did it for me.I could always get a remap if I find I want more of course which according to the claims gives 530d output.
