And the expenses won’t end there, either. Aside from the socket, owners will require a breaker bar to move the socket. In all fairness, the center-locking wheels on a Porsche need the same tools. However, the difference is when you buy a GT3 RS or Turbo S, Porsche at least throws the socket in for free.
If and when these M Performance center-locking wheels are introduced in America, perhaps the German marque would see fit to include the socket as part of the package. In Europe (and other regions), BMW has been known to be rather stingy regarding standard specification, so this is no surprise.
Alongside the new wheels, BMW also introduced M Performance suspension with height-adjustable springs, exterior styling accessories, and Alcantara interior finishes.
