BTW, what can I do about the RF tires if weather is lousy? Any suggestions out there?
I'd really prefer all season tires on 135M rims (M Sport Package).

Hi, and you'll have great fun with the 545. I hope I can do European Delivery for my next one.
I am going to take my sport package Dunlop runflats off for winter (245 front, 275 rear) and put Dunlop runflat Winter Sport M3 tires on all four corners, with new wheels, all four identical at 225s. I'm told the narrower tires will make a huge difference, and that this tire is also fine on dry pavement. So Thanksgiving to Easter I'll probably use the 225s. I'm hoping that will be fine. The tire dealer and BMW dealer agree on this setup, and say they've done plenty just like it. We'll see.
