The tread design of the latter appears a little more all-season.

It's a misprint in the ordering/pricing guides...BMW just left out the word "mixed" when referring to the 742Ms. Another mistake noted was referring to the rear 21" 741Ms as 10.0" wide, when they are really 10.5" BMW uses various tire manufacturers throughout the production life, but these are both summer rubber.
