I had/have the same problem. The advice I've been given, which makes sense, is to sell the 123 wheels separately as the dealer won't give you nearly what you could sell by yourself.
Then you'll just have to buy the wheels you want and swap them out when your car is delivered. I'm shocked BMW doesn't give you options in this area as many of us like to customize our cars this way.
My car is not here yet but that is what I am planning to do.

Same here.
For example if you order MSports pack (which comes with 135 rims) but you want some other rims you will pay the full price of the sports pack plus the other wheels.
Of course you end up with 2 sets of wheels!

so if you order the 128's...do u get both the 123's AND the 128's since they are charging you full price for the wheels?
:thumbsdown:
your best bet...get whatever stock wheels come with it. once u get them put them up for sale here on e60.net, and buy a set of 128's from either here or some other place.

The only wheels you can get from the factory are the ones that are listed on the option sheets and online configurators for your particular model of E60. That's it. If they're not there, they *cannot* be specified from the factory and must be ordered separately as parts. So whether you want to keep your Style 123, try to sell them yourself, or take the $1000 credit is up to you - but what your dealer is telling you is correct.
