I caught a nail in my tire with about 1200 miles. BMW wouldn't repair it so I proceeded to buy (500$) another one. d'oh! Then I went by discount tire and they fixed my pretty much brand new tire for free. So if you need one and are local I got one for Ya.

make sure you check the wheel when you change the tire. I hit a pot hole my first week and cracked the wheel.

apparently these eco friendly pirelli run flats are really hard to find in a pinch, even had some trouble at dealers. for the price, I'd rather go PSS. Eventually, had to bring it to a dealer that had just one.

so i was able to get the tire replaced and less than a week later, the same side tire burst again. is there anything in terms of what the dealer can do to get me a replacement without additional costs?
