I have no idea if the star means they are better for a BMW or not, but I certainly know they aren't worse than non-starmarked, so again, why not?
You don’t have to buy them from the dealer and they aren’t more expensive.
There is adding value, and then there is being a douche just to be a douche.

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but this adds further insight into the Star marked tire differences directly from the manufacturer and not an independent test site. Just saw this 15 minute presentation by a Michelin engineer on the differences between the "generic" Pilot Sport 4S and the N-Spec tires for Porsche. You can be sure that BMW engineers prioritized certain characteristics when defining their Star mark tires in a similar way that Porsche did for their N-spec tires.
