Btw does this mean we should have to ask for bmw specific tires even when we go to mum and pop shops for tire replacement? Or will these tires only be available at dealers...

Many times tirerack for example will let you choose the bmw spec tire |
Interesting! Thanks man - great tip. But I guess before tire-rack we were all driving non-spec tires unless we went to the dealer.... |
Maybe, but wouldn't be overtly concerned about it. I'm sure "starspec" holds a marginal difference in performance characteristics over the non-star spec counterpart, where only a marginal % of drivers will notice a difference, if any at all. I call it marketing at its best aka create a reason to also justify a higher retail price.
