Changing wheel size during the build process

Can you change the wheel size on an ordered x3, without extending the wait time on the build process, I ordered last wednesday,I thought about going with the 21 inch over the standard 19s

Yes, as long as the vehicle is not in production yet.

I did the same thing prior to production beginning. 19’s to 20’s. 21’s are too harsh unless you live somewhere that doesn’t experience freeze/thaw cycles.

Pre LCI there was an option (M sport package) to increase the top speed to 155mph with performance summers 20 or 21 inch. It wasn’t available with 19” all seasons. Not that you’ll be able to do 155mph without loosing your license, but I think the M40i deserves it!

As long as your order is in Status 111 (order accepted) or 112 (scheduled for production), you can change specification. Once it reaches Status 150 (production begins), no further changes are allowed. Ask your Client Advisor, Genius, or check MyBMW for your current order status.

As said, if you go with the 19" wheels your speed limiter will be set at 130mph, you have to get the 20" or 21" wheels to get the factory 155mph speed limiter.

I've been told by the salesman,no changes can be made, I had a Vin number in like 8 hours from the order, and the car is supposed to be at the dealer by February 12th, when I ordered my m240i, the car took 16 weeks then shopping took another 2 weeks
