I think AW is going to be rare. I might switch to AW, just want to take a look at it first

Look out your window - within 5sec you should see white cars

Clearly SLP is building plenty of them for centers within that region. Possibly press launch vehicles? Two indicators that they are not intended for US/EU centers. (1) They are loaded on trucks via trains that would transport them to port. (2) They do not have the shipping plastic affixed to the hood, roof, and trunk lid.

I was wondering about the wrapping. Like it's asking for all kinds of rock chips

M2 SoCal · 02-10-2023, 11:05 AM

That black looks evil, love it.

Interesting that some have P Zeros or Mich so it’s a tire lottery again perhaps.

rwemersonrw · 02-10-2023, 11:06 AM

They should have covered the cars. Smh last thing we need are rock chips hitting them.

cncmastr · 02-10-2023, 11:09 AM

Looks better in black.

Definitely a lottery. I'm just expecting Pirellis and hope to be disappointed haha.

Exactly. I had this on another car and sold them right away that pretty much paid for the PS4s anyways. Wonder if they have the new PS5s….probably not.

I agree. Out of the factory options it's the best one. They do so many great blues but not this one.

I wish they would just stop with the Pirellis. They must know how customers feel about it.

Michelin literally can't make enough of them for the entire globe and every car made 😂

But yeah, honestly...when was the last time Pirelli impressed anyone? When the P Zero Corsa came out 15yrs ago?

They just wear out too fast. They came on my X5MC. It did not take long to have to replace them.

If they do it like they do at BMW Plant Spartanburg it is applied before the vehicle ever rolls out the factory doors.

We knew knew that would be the case, two tire manufacturers.

Those are not intended for the U.S. market. U.S. vehicles from SLP are initially shipped to port via trains and then shipped to various ports via a carrier ships.

No, the MPS5S has not even launched yet. The intended release was November 2022. It has been delayed. New ETA is unknown.

Black is the only color I could consider on this new M2

It looks absolutely sinister in Black
