Is it correct that I can't buy any wheels for this car?
The 116d ED is tuned to economy. Larger wheels increase driving resistance and by that also the consumption figures.
But like you I wonder why they do not have this option.
Suggestion: Save the 16" for winter use and buy aftermarket wheels in 17" for summer.
