I don't know if the sport seats work differently in the EURO market, but for the US market the side bolsters are adjustable and powered.
YES, the bladders in the sides can be fully deflated.
Compared to the sport seats in my E46 325i and my former 135i, the F30 sport seats are WIDER when fully deflated, especially compared to my 135i, which also had power adjustable side bolsters, my 325i didn't have adjustable side bolsters. Interestingly, in the 135i when fully deflated the sides felt narrower/tighter compared to the E46 sport seats.

You'll LOVE the new sport seats if you liked the previous iterations of BMW sport seats, these new seats are better.
