I know this because I ran over something in the road not 1/2 a mile from the dealer when I was coming in to pick up some mats. Global in Atlanta got me in right away and charged me 400 for the tire instead of tire racks 468. I think Global and I are going to have a long pleasant relationship.
I only have 300 miles on there car because of sheltering in place so I didn't feel like I needed to buy a pair. That was a little bit of sticker shock. In the 1998 I had FIKSE FM10 modular forged heels that cost each about what I paid total to get the tire mounted. BTW those wheels now cost 1500. I'm glad my son insisted on keeping them when I sold the M3 in 2002. We still have them.

I Don't find the ride harsh. It feels a lot softer than my 1M coupe and my M3s.
