Lightbulb F30 330i Msport Individual - Michelin tyres available?

Hi Guys,

First of all: what a great forum. The amount of information I've been able to find in here over the last couple of months has been phenomenal! So grateful for all the isights listed here.

On to my happy thought of the day: I've placed my order for an LCI F30 330i (with the new 2016 European only -?- B48 engine) this afternoon:
  • Individual Tanzanite Blue, with Individual Black Merino leather and leather dashboard
  • Piano black trim
  • 8AT sport. As a manual lover, I never thought I'd see the day, but it just clicked during my testdrive. The fact that the girlfriend fractured her foot last year and finds it painful to operate clutch pedals ever since, sealed the deal I guess...
  • M-sport with M-brakes and 18" 400M wheels
  • Adaptive LEDs
  • Electric and heated seats
  • ...

Received a 19,2% discount. I'm not used to seeing these kinds of discounts over here, so I was quite pleased.

Only thing still pending is my request to have the runflats replaced by Michelin Super Sports.
I have read about this possibility on a number of topics, but my dealer couldn't find the option for a car optioned with an Msport package. According to him, it could only be selected in the system on non-Msport rims. Given the type of tyres, this struck me as being quite weird... I've asked him to check this with BMW as it would most definitely be the first change I'd be making anyway...

If anyone has had experience with Runflats -> MSS factory requests lately, I'd be very grateful to have your thoughts on this!

So, now we wait: delivery is scheduled for 1st week of March.

Awaiting real pics:

The enhanced Sound system (called Hifi here) was added. I personally don't find the HK a necessary upgrade, but thanks for the feedback, appreciate it

This is the exact 330i I would build if I could afford it, did you lease it? How much if so

I am speccing a very similar 440gc. I also don't like the fact that run flats are forced on you but i figure they will wear out in a year or two and then i can get some pss's
