I thought I’d read somewhere that BMW ditched runflats for this new model?
Yep pretty sure they come with non-RFT MPSS tyres. A space saver spare is optional.

Really bad tramlining on the Whinlatter road couldn't remember it being so bad in the E89 but it could be a combination of new runflats and not the best road :o

Indeed, on The M40 models it’s Michelin Super Sports as standard and a compressor kit in the boot, it does tramline more than the e89 but less than the e85 with RFT’s
