https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...7&postcount=34 If they were a smaller size, I'd consider them. But the possibility of rocks getting stuck between the caliper and rim is too much of a concern for me. I believe CCBs are also worse when wet and cold.

My short point is - yep, less rotating mass, but choosing lighter tires by a few lbs would make an even bigger difference (for example the Michelin Cup 2's are actually 2-4 lbs lighter than RE71R's at the same size).

I think a very good choice...CS will be for sure a very good car, just the price is too steep in my opinion for what you get... CS was never option for me...curios about what they do with the next gen...however, for now I have not a very good feeling after seeing the latest renders / leaks for their next gen Ms...but still have hope that they at least will nail it with the M2...if not, gonna be happy to spec a GT4 and join the P family |

Spot on. An 18" wheel with a dedicated track tyre saves a ton of weight. Years ago I ran 1" smaller with Hoosiers on an e36. What a difference. People forget about tyre weight all the time.

I wouldn't put it past BMW to offer this as an "M-performance" item at some point. Let the CS allocations fill out and then roll out the tune maybe Fall 2020 and price it at a level where those who want to retain the factory engine and drivetrain warranty will pony up. Of course they won't say that it is the "CS" tune, and all they would have to do is change one bit in the code (that does nothing) so they could legally claim that it is *not* the CS tuning I'm thinking $1995 or some such would do it. Kind of makes you wonder what the maximum profit point is on the price demand curve for such. Costs on BMW's end are minuscule to implement.

I felt that the video above did a good description of discussing M as a whole, and the expertise involved. The reviewers still preferred the older models, bet expressed how the modern m cars embody the spirit of the goal. I suspect the M2 CS is going to feel like a different animal.

Now the M2c stock compared to it with the MPS, and the Noelle tune I did. That’s a totally different animal. I’m curious to see though, if I ever get my hands on one. |

Hmm... Interesting if that means the US deliveries will be after that even. Not what I was hoping for.
