X3 2012 Runflats

BMW has warned that the X3 suspension is specifically designed for runflats and replacing them with conventional tires will result in a poorer suspension perfornance and comfort.

Should this warning just be discounted as BMW BS for the sole purpose of defending and supporting their decision to promote and fit only runflats ?

And will the X3 suspension perform just as well, or better, with good conventional tires ?

Nope they will actually blame any problems on the tires if you switch them. Shoot they blamed my transmission problems on me changing the speakers.
