Hey guys, I am thinking about upgrading my daily driver and putting in an order for a new 540i with the 21" wheels. I have done a search on the Forum, and I know the new G60 540i doesn't have the option for the Adaptive M Suspension. I have also tried to find as many videos and reviews as I could for the G60 with the 21" wheels. My current BMW has the Adaptive M Suspension and I love it, but I want something new with a more comfortable spacious interior as my daily driver.

Was wondering if anyone has experienced too much stiffness on an every day basis with the 21" wheels. I am a bit worried that the 21's without the Adaptive M Suspension will be a bit too stiff for every day driving. I live in South Florida and the roads aren't horrible here, ( i.e. not really any giant potholes) but I am still worried as I have a bad back from my military service.

The Adaptive M Suspension works amazing and I'm really disappointed that BMW in their infinite wisdom is not letting the 540i have it. I have not been able to find out if the new 550e will come with the adaptive suspension or not, but that car will be too much money for something that will be just my daily driver, plus I don't like the idea of driving around a 4,800lb car.

Anyways I digress. I just want to know if the 21's are too stiff with the M Sport Suspension on the 540i that's all. I don't like the 20" wheel options as much on the 540i being that proportionally is just such a bigger car now than previous 5-Series and the 21" fill up the wheel wells a lot nicer in my opinion.

Thanks!

Also random question, does any one know why BMW decided not to give U.S. Spec 5-Series the Rear Climate Control? Even the G20's get it on a base 330i! What the hell?!

You can add the rear climate controls to a U.S. spec G60. Just need your client advisor to add 4NB to your order. It is a $650 option. I added it to my order as well. See https://g60.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=30481925

Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for the advice! If I end up ordering, I will add it. Thanks!
