My 116i M Sport is set up with 205-tires in all four corners, and it is very nicely balanced. The suspension seems to compensate a lot for throttle inputs, so it is hard to bring it out of balance with throttle inputs. Due to the good balance, it does however react very well to the steering wheel. When you are on the limit, the car can often be brought into a slide simply by steering too much. This is of course easier during trail braking than a corner exit.
Once the car is sideways, it is easier to control by the throttle, and the virtual differential brake feature helps a lot.
