: I like the tires overall, and have put 2k on them, but am concerned with a "squishy" feeling I get in hard cornering, which I think may have to do with the tall tread blocks and soft sidewalls.

: I noticed that someone with an M coupe tried them and wasn't satisfied; is it possible that these tires are best for smaller cars, like the Dunlop D60A2?

I posted the message about the 730s on my M Coupe. The tires do feel a little better now (more grip), but I still have the "squishy" feeling you describe, even under "normal" driving. Those tread blocks are so soft! So are the sidewalls! I'm learning to live with it and hope they get better as they wear out. I won't buy another set for my car, that's for sure!
