2PG (standard) - these are the PSS 2TR (optional) - all seasons 258 (optional) - runflats 2PG requires ordering 840 (increased top speed) 2TR deletes 840 The guide doesn't specify what effect 258 has on top speed. Maybe this is how that guy wound up with the Bridgestone RFT's. |

Again, run flats don't limit your speed the all season tires do. Every BMW M Sport sold has run flats most with summer performance and rated up to 150+. The only model other than true M's with non run flats are the M235 so there is no reason the run flat summer performance M235 would be limited to 130.

Does it mean that when you ordered the car with option 840 - Increased top speed limiter that it is set at 155 regardless?

I don't know if that is even possible using the outer track at Bahrain International Circuit (2.2 miles straight line) or if I can even drive that fast.

You guys are funny , clearly there's only one way to find out , and you don't attempt to hit 150mph then it probably doesn't even matter ! 130mph is plenty in usa ... U can't hit that speed anywhere without getting arrested

Actually you can hit that speed in the USA without getting arrested. Track day events. I was over 130 mph at Watkins Glen in NY with my Mustang, and an E92 M3 hit 140 there. No arrests.

either the BMW web site or salesman didn't tell me anything about the Remove Increased Top Speed 840, but lucky I read all build documents before put my signature on the paper

Now you're funny. Why would you do a stupid thing like that.

Wow you guys spread some really incorrect things. I have a 228 msport with runflats. My car is governed to 155. As far as I remember when I did a ton of research and reading back in April.. All season tires on the 228 or 235 will get you governed to 130. Otherwise all msport BMWs have 150+. And no you can not change it later. Someone delete page one of this thread. It's a waste

I started another thread asking if anyone has a fix for this , because yes my car has all season run flats and gets to 127mph and goes no more. It will suck at the track because it gets there in a hurry. I wish my dealer would have brought this to my attention, because originaly I wanted the MPSS and told him this but I still ended up with all seasons
![]() Hopefully someone will come up with a fix for this. |

most tunes used to override the speed limiter... maybe they will have something like that eventually

I can definitely confirm that with the all season tires, the M235i is limited to 130mph. With the summer tires, the car does not have the limiter and will do 155
