Weird issue

Antec800 · 02-23-2022, 04:22 PM

Just got a new 22 m550, traded an old 2020 m340, cars are a night and day difference, I do miss the heavy steering and sportier seats tho, but the real issue is small rock/pebbles noise hitting the undercarriage/wheel wells it’s so loud compared to even the 3 series, it’s almost like they didn’t add enough hard rubbery coating to the undercarriage or wheel wells.

it might be due to the sticky slightly wider summer tires, they pick up more little rocks and throw them your way.

My summer tires are definitely more susceptible to picking up pebbles and shooting them against the underbody, but it's not that big of a deal, I don't drive over loose gravel much.
