Tyres on M135i

[clutz]

HI. I am in the process of ordering a M135i. I want to get the sport auto version but then I cannot combine this with the non run flat tyres.http://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/images/smilies/Top24/argh.gif

Is this correct? Has anyone been able to get a M135i with the automatic gearbox and the non run flat tyres?

Thanks Craig

I honestly didnt know we had tyre choice, thought only Europe had the option of Michelins .

BMW wouldn't offer you a Non Run Flat option as the car doesn't have the facility for a spare tyre by standard.

Not having a spare tyre also helps with weight distribution and extra power.

If you speccing a M135, you can spec the Non Flat Tyres.

I just did not know it wasn't possible on the Sport Auto.

Correct, Michelin PSS tyres are an option.

Those super sports are damn pricey, but well worth it I guess.

Thanks for replying. It seems these non run flats are only available with the manual gearbox. I was hoping that some one was able to get these tyres with the sport auto.

Thanks Craig

At last. We have ordered our new M135i today. With the help of Ash from BMW SA and Melissa from Autobahn we were able to spec the high grip tyre(run flat delete) with the sports auto gearbox.

BMW SA say that it was an error on their system which has since my queries been corrected yesterday.

Now just the painful wait.

Cheers Craig.

From July build the cars also come with dynamic brake lights. I believe it those that flash when braking.
