Rear grip (lack of)
Right, I've put winter tyres on, it's around 4-5C, not icy and only a little bit damp on the road (although a bit muddy in places), I'm leaving it in Comfort mode and I'm not being too heavy with my right foot, yet I'm still getting the back end wandering out on a regular basis, especially coming off tight roundabouts
How's everyone else getting on? |

Same conditions here.. and as you know I still have the factory ‘summer’ tyres on.
Not had any dramas out of corners or roundabouts - and driving sensibly but normal and in sport. Have had back end move a bit with hard acceleration on straights in same conditions and in sport - but I would expect that. |

It's going in for a couple of minor warranty issues next week so I'm going to ask them to check that the DSC's actually working. |

I put 15mm wheel spacers on rear and its seems to help. Fyi my previous Z4 28i which didn't have much power had no problem smoking tires stock. With wheel spacers i couldn't break them loose.
