I'm a new owner of a 2015 M235ix and love the car's handling. But on the open road freeway driving high speed, the ride is a little hard even using Comfort setting. Can I have my local BMW Dealer replace the shocks with a stand one to reduce improving the cruising ride quality? Of course I don't want to invalidate my existing BMW warranty nor the two additional CPO extension warranty I paid for.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Do you have run-flat tires? If so, ditch them and get Michelin Pilot Super Sports or PS4's. You'll be much happier.
If you really must have all-seasons, then look at the Michelin Pilot AS3+.

In the US only one type of dampener was offered for the M235i/240. It is not likely they will retrofit a European option for you.
I don't know what to suggest other than what is mentioned above, maybe tires with a bit softer sidewall?
