Hi. I have had my 116i M sport for 10 days now, and got it delivered on Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 RFT stud tires, 205/55-16.
Have got exactly the same problem as stated here - was doing some long distance driving this weekend, and had a couple of scary overtakings when driving in comfort and sport mode. When doing about 80 in 5th or 6th gear, and overtaking, the DSC started blinking, and extremely little throttle response. I had the throttle in the same position during overtaking, and switched it into Sport+, and the car just boosts forward!

For info, the car is driven 800km now, it may have something to do with it. I'll have a call to my local dealer, and hear what they have to say about it.
It was not an issue at all on the 116d M sport with 18" RFT wheels we tested earlier this autumn.
