Tires on the M Coupe?
Does anyone know what actual tires will be used on the 1 series M? I realize the suspension setup will be different to the 135, but I'm thinking of ditching my run flats, and it'd be interesting to see what BMW does on the M.

Hopefully those ^^^
In the spirit of cutting costs, they'll probably be the same as the M3 with the Comp package.

Had the PS2's on my Cayman. LOVED those tires - so sticky icky.
Pricey though. I got about 10k out of a set of rears.

PS3 isn't available in the U.S.
Going by how the tire is listed on tech details page: Tyre dimensions front 245/35 ZR19 (93Y) XL Tyre dimensions rear 265/35 ZR19 (98Y) XL it certainly looks to be the PS2.

The PSS is the successor of the PS2. Confusingly, the PS3 is more of a luxury sedan tire and not a step forward from the PS2.
I'd guess the car launches with PS2s and gets the PSS mid cycle. |
