That's normal as it's part of steering feel reporting what the tires are doing on a particular surface.

It sounds like the vibration some are reporting is not that at all, and it's not natural or normal.
I have test driven 3 different 335 sport line and 1 328 modern line 2012s. The only one that exhibited any steering wheel vibration was the USA test drive 335 which did have a vibration under braking at around 40 mph . I felt it was a brake warp issues considering a15k mile demo being pushed hard by partipants in the drive. Hope mine is not my first.......
