I discussed this with my dealer parts dept .. By all means give them a ring it's bowker in Blackburn

He did say that he expects the price to drop though as a number of people are in the same position as you and are complaining it seems

I went out and bought a set on his advice ..

I think you'll get the same answer from perrygun as he has done the same
What is it with BMW and BL***Y WHEELS! When ordering my replacement I specifically asked if my winter wheels would fit the LCI. Have had no mention of any issues. Looks like there is a conversation to be had!
