Does anyone know if the tires must be RFTs in order for the coverage to be valid? Meaning if I replace the stock RFTs with non RFTs (or non RFTs winters), will it void the coverage?

This is on the link you sent. My contract isn't handy, but I think the bolded language means you can't just replace them with whatever you want.

BMW Financial Services Tire and Rim Protection can be applied to any New, Pre-Owned or Certified Series® Pre-Owned BMW
•Coverage must be purchased within 30 days of vehicle purchase

•Tires on all vehicles must have a tread depth of greater than or equal to 4 mm (5/32") at contract inception to be eligible for coverage

•The Service Contract is always restricted to the original vehicle and the tires and rims installed, and any subsequent set of tires and rims that are of manufacturer specification

•The service contract can be transferred to a new private owner of the vehicle. Proof of purchase may be requested.

Some conditions and benefit limits may apply. See contract terms and conditions for full coverage details.

manufacturer specification is open to subjection. One would have to consider the context of the verbiage here. If manufacturer is labeled as BMW then yep that could be bad but if not it could be said to be the tire manufacturer too which are usually experts in what will work on the vehicle. RFTs and non RFTs both fit the vehicle.
