We don't have that compromise here in the UK, we have OEM performance summer tires and the higher speed limiter.
It's also a no cost option here in the US. When I got my F30 in 2013, it came with performance tires but could be optioned with "no cost" all season tires if one desired it. This was actually before the better brakes with fixed calipers could be speced in later years. There was absolutely no issue with the brakes and they dropped anchor far better than the s2000 I had before that. And NOBODY calls the s2k a poor drivers car.
