Full non BS review coming up... mixed bag. But mostly I like it.

I don't know :wtf: bmw is thinking while putting 225 wide front tires on an "m sport" packaged car.
If it's anything like the one my co-worker has, they're 180 TW tires.
He was a little annoyed that @ 13k miles he needed new tires.

It's like that on almost all RWD cars, even M3 and Z06.

The 5th gen camaro Z28 is the only thing I can think of that came from the factory with a proper square setup.

My car came with 265/295 and ideally should have 305s at all 4 corners. New Z06 is still like that.

People also bitch about NVH and tramlining even on performance cars, it's nuts. Bitching that you need to pay attention to keep your performance car pointed the way you want is :dafuq: Drive the fucking car, :bruh:
