what have you done about a spare wheel?
Spoke to my local BMW dealer today and they say that they only do 1 17" space saver wheel and that would be no good in conjunction with 19" rims.

My Ride: 535d Auto M Sport delivered 04/10/05, Carbon Black, Beige Ventilated Nasca Leather, Dark Poplar Wood, Media Pack - Sat Nav Pro, Bmw Assist, Bluetooth phone prep + telematics + snap in adapter for Nokia 6230i & 6 CD, Visibility Pack - bi-xenons, adaptive headlights and Headlight Wash, HUD, High Gloss Shadow Line, Extended Lights, HiFi System, Extended Voice, M Spoiler and Heated/ventilated f/seats. Chrome Grills. M Double Spoke 19" Mixed Wheels 172 with 245/35 front and 275/30 rear (Non-runflat continentals) Spare wheel and jack. Supaglass.
Mine is on order for end of the month, but when you specify the 19" wheels the system automatically adds the space saver wheel. This is 17", but the sidewalls are deeper so that the difference isn't that noticeable - but don't forget the space saver is only there to get you to a home or to a tyre shop.

those skinny wheels that are meant to get you to the nearest service st. or dealer etc... not the sort of wheel you can take to the track!!
