Would you describe your driving habits as spirited?
Your vehicle's excellent road holding ability could encourage driving that does not promote tire longevity.
I recently recycled my '88 Mazda 626 4WS under the California 'buy back program' at 227,000 miles with a failing trasmission. The four Michelins were still fully legal and had 80,000 miles on them, but I had been driving that car very carefully the last ten years (I'm weird) because I really did want to see how far it would go.
I once did alignments for a living and found that on very small cars placing about 75 lbs on the drivers seat made for a more accurate alignment.
I wouldn't recommend altering BMW specs.
