She'll be driving a car with one of the stiffest chassis BMW has ever made (not just one of the stiffest cabrios, this includes sedans and coupes too), with 35 series tires. Regardless of what brand/model tire you buy it will ride like it has Fred Flinstones wood log roller wheels on it compared to her daily driver sedan. I doubt she'll notice the difference between the RE11's and the RE71's.
