tbh, w/ it being AWD i don't think it's as important traction wise (don't get me wrong, i would love to see 315's on the rear) to have very wide tires. also, those wide tires are heavy as hell |
Maybe the already heavy weight was the reason for the skinnier tires |
BMW M Division definitely should've added a Carbon Fiber Roof option to keep some weight down. I think the panoramic moonroof adds approximately 70 pounds and a standard moonroof adds 40+ pounds. All could be eliminated to save top/heavy unnecessary weight. |
Pano roof is probably 100-150 lbs more than steel roof alone and 150-200 lbs more than a mythical CFRP roof. Now the big question though is the listed weight of 4600 lbs with or without pano roof??
