Wrong Spec Tires

Hello

I recently ordered a 2021 m340i and I had opted for the high performance tire/cooling package, but I didn't end up receiving it as it wasn't listed in the window sticker... Instead, I got crappy all season 225 square setup.

I called my center and they told me they must have run out of stock of the high performance tires and switched to all season 225s....

I'm not sure what to do at this point. Any ideas? Thanks

Did you get everything else that is in that package? Keep in mind that the rear tires are not only wider but so is the rim. Then there is the larger brakes and oil cooler.

That sucks... hope they didn't charge you for it.
As for the tires, you will have to replace the rear wheels with 8.5" ones and then put staggered tires on. Some people here have also put on 245 squared tires on 8" rims.
