You select nothing, and when the dealer gives you the build sheet make sure package 2PG is listed (that is the Summer performance tire option e.g the default).

This is interesting.....maybe the solution is to find the best possible RFT, whether all season or summer only? Here's an all-season review, if one doesn't want to take the change of being flat-stranded, waiting for the BMW truck to arrive.

When do you get a build sheet? I had mine incorrect on the inquiry form. I have yet to get a production number. After much going back and forth and even bringing a BMW "genius" into the mix the dealer tried changing the order and was able to remove the "all season" selection but not the "run flat" portion so on the order modification form it shows an error. Will I get another build sheet at some point? Maybe after I get a production number?

My question was more whether I will get another sheet that updates my options between now and when I get the car. As you can see, my original Inquiry Report was incorrect (first picture). After a week of going back and forth he tried an order modification (second picture) and deleted "all-seasons" but said he could not delete "runflats" and thus as you can see on the second form on the right, it was rejected. He mentioned that once I get a production number he should be able to fix it. I just want to make sure I have something that shows it is correct before it goes into production.

I just had my dealer email the build sheet. It does not say 2PG anywhere but it also does not list runflats. I guess that means that I'm okay?

I have the same thing. My build sheet does not say option 2pg (summer tires). It also does not say run flats. And it definitely does not say option 2tr (all season). This probably means its ok.

The first thing I looked at when the car showed at the dealer was the tires though, and all was well! |

2PG doesn't show cause is a STANDARD option...
it should show nothing... and for sure not show 258 or 2TR else you are getting run-flat all season |

I had thought it was performance summer tires OR all seasons, however there was the other completely different option for runflats or not.
Which would mean 3 options, performance tires with or without runflats, and the all season which is runflats only. I could be wrong, but that's what I recall. |

It's only 2 options. 1. No options = PSS + non-runflat 2. All season + runflat Invalid options that would get rejected: 1. Non-all seasons + runflat 2. All season + non-runflat |

For what it's worth, my build sheet didn't have 2PG... it had no reference to tires at all. I believe (and hope) I end up with the summer tires.

Yes, 1000x yes. Run flats are poop in ride quality and handling.
