I am going to try 36 an see if that helps, but overall the ride of the car is really disappointing. I am sure the RFT tires share some of the blame but I think BMW is losing it's way on suspension tuning and ride quality. There is just no excuse for the sloppy ride.

Is this what everybody is seeing or is there a problem with this car?
that's a very "comforting" thread just weeks before we are picking up our 28i !!!
