Definitely not getting 275s in the back of the M240/235.

Though I don't notice an issue with straight line traction or handling running ~370whp/400wtq and an LSD with my square 245/35R18 MP4S setup. I also added 30% stiffer Dinan springs to the rear axle (only) to quell a lot of that bounce you described in the M240. I would have really preferred a passive shock option because I don't find the adjustable shocks to be particularity good in Comfort or Sport, but the Dinan springs did help quite a bit.

I'm currently hating life running winter performance 225/40R18s on my M235. The difference in handling, steering effort and feel, braking, ride quality (overly soft now) etc. is so terrible. It's like a different car and feels much like the XDrives I've driven in the past.
