My Sport Line came with the atrocious Goodyear Efficient Grips that handle like absolute garbage. They are more comfortable and compliant than the OEM runflats on my e90, but the tradeoff in handling capability and braking performance negated any gains in comfort. I already switched mine out with Sumitomo HKR ZIIIs (non runflat) and they are brilliant. I very nearly got in a serious wreck a few weeks ago when a guy flipped a u turn right in front of me when I was going about 60 mph. The front end lost grip immediately with the Goodyears and I nearly skidded sideways in my effort to avoid a collision. Needless to say, the tires were swapped within 48 hours.
