Trying to get that power down with the 265 rear tires (as seen in a few spy pics) should be, err, fun.
My guess is for at least 275 tires on the new M but definitely wider than E46 M3. Heck you may be abel to get 305s on the rear with the right offsets (speculation...). You are right, too much hp for 265s - no way to take advantage of all the hp to get to potential max acceleration.
