Pretty darn good on a car that weighs 3,792 lbs.
I have borrowed my friends M5 of that vintage. One heck of a road beast.
Built in radar was a good thing.

If your gastropod is on dubzzzz, anyway.
There's (1) 17" size available and it's a relatively narrow 225. A handful of 18" sizes and then a bazillion 19-20-21-22-24" sizes. wtf?
On tire rack the 17 isn't even available, it's only 18" and up.

I only see one size available in 18" (245/40ZR18)
Yeah, that - I was looking at the vredstein website initially but what you can actually buy in the US is more limited. Oh well. Not sure GRM is the market for 19"+ tires but OK.
