18" wheels that are multipiece will look terrible. The reason the 65 series wheels look so nice is that the inner piece is a 18" wheel with an inch of lip and bolts around it. Now we'll have a 17" wheel with an inch of lip and bolts around it. IMO its going to look like smaller wheels. And why would they raise the limiter to 186 and not just take the damn thing off

I suppose it's like the Off-Road package for the ML. Remove the expensive and specialised equipment, leave it for the customers that know to demand it, let the rest of the people save some money.
Of course, that only makes sense if the price of the 030 package was the same amount of savings over the M5. Which it's not.
How much, do you think, is the limiter raise is worth?

Must they change the wheels!!!!
The new E63 wheels are hot, why change them for multipiece 18's?
As said, I don't think they are going to look all that great.
This package should ditch the stupid wheels and just come out for $5-$6k.
Which I would still think is an insult, let alone $8k+.
