Fuel capacity is 15.8 gallons.
I just filled my 2nd tank in my 335i. It took 15.1 gallons, with a wee bit over "empty" on the gauge.

I don't know if the dealer filled it completely, but the first tank averaged about 22mpg, and that's will a new and tight engine. Very mixed driving, sport mode all the time, and mostly manual shifting the sport AT.

Tire pressures set at 35psi front, and 38psi rear.
BMW recommends 32frt and 35rr. Consistent highway driving above 100mph, or full capacity calls for 39frt and 41rr, for my 18" UHP Summer tires.

What PSI are you guys running?
I recommend upping both ends by 3 psi, from standard, for improved MPG and better tire wear, side benefit of a bit quicker steering response too.
