I have a F30 328i.
Right when i got the alignment done, and new tires in the rear ( normal tires but fronts are still run flat stock), i have been getting traction light when im turning or do quick wiggle on freeway.
Can this be caused my mix of run flat and non run flat?

I'd say your new tyres need breaking in, they can be a bit slippery when new, that should settle quickly after a few dozen miles

I have Air Lift suspension. Mine is the prototype installed by Air Lift.
This another alignment shop told me that there is cupping from front inner tire.
He said the pulling (traction light is probably caused by suspension bouncing) caused by damaged suspension or cupping from tires.

I do hear a bunch of clicking and creaking noise from front when turning at any speed.
Taking off from stop also gives me a clicking noise.

I took the car to bmw specialty to check for worn bushings or loosened parts.
No worn bushings. Alot of loosened bolts. One of the arms in the rear was barely hanging.

Everything tightened up but noise didnt go away. Alignment is within spec but still alot of pulling to right and unstable handling.

So.. which suspension part can cause cupping wear inside ?

Not sure if such small parts like endlinks can cause so much noise like this..

Maybe rack and pinion? I really hope its not this..

I will create new thread

Sounds like you guys attempted to out engineer BMW with that air lift suspension and epic failed hard.

Repair and revert back to stock.
