Congrats and welcome to the "Club!"

Did you get the Sports Package? (Interesting you have Michelin Primacy tires instead of Goodyear Excellence RFT)

That's weird...I thought all Sports Package models came with Goodyear Excellence RFT's

Are yours RFT's (Run-Flats?)

Whose E60 is that in the 2nd pic?

What am I saying?....of course they're all run-flats!....no spare in the trunk.

But I'm curious why BMW would switch over to Michelin's instead of Goodyear (discontinued? short supply? cost?)

tires brands do vary from time to time...depends on what's in stock at time of production from what I've read...

over on M3posts some are reporting taking delivery with PS2's and other's Conti's
