I currently have them on my M2 without the star and cannot say anything negative about their behaviour...

I'd heard/read via this and other boards that the 4s are not a great improvement over the oem supersports as the side wall on then4s is a bit too floppy and messes with handling. Just what I've read, and not experienced for myself.

@Egress Did you have supers before or contis? If supers, did you do decent miles in them before switching and therefore could comment on behaviours?

I had Super sports on before. Did 4500 Kilometers with them.
Can‘t report on your sidewall comment as Ingas only 200 Kilometers ok them before storing the car away for winter. But nothing negative about them so far...
