Replying to: dmabrams (Feb 15, 2006 10:19 am) The cars do not have a spare, jack, etc and the dealer will not do it. I bought the tire and wheel damage warranty for $500. They came down on the price. If there is no tire in stock they give me a loaner until the car is ready. Replies to this message: turtle2216 (Feb 17, 2006 6:57 pm) best4 (Feb 20, 2006 7:00 am)

Replying to: best4 (Feb 15, 2006 11:46 am) Does anyone here have the Pirelli run flats, I have an 06 3 series and it has the sport package with the Pirelli's. I hate them, they are noisy and sound like they are warped or something, is there anything I can do about this? Replies to this message: best4 (Feb 20, 2006 7:00 am)

Replying to: ricksterq (Feb 05, 2006 11:05 am) Last July I bought my first BMW. Purposely avoided waiting for the 2006 so I could get "normal" tires for my 325Xi. Love the car but would think twice about a new one. Replies to this message: ek2415 (Feb 23, 2006 12:33 pm) dl7265 (Mar 02, 2006 3:43 pm) ek2415 (May 20, 2006 6:24 pm)

Replying to: robl1 (Feb 20, 2006 6:16 pm) 2006 325I with Sport Package purchase in July and now has only 9000 miles. The Bridgestone tires are shot and the dealer is telling me it's a known defect with the tires but Bmw will only pick-up half the bill of $1400. I haven't had my first oil change yet but I need to spend almost a $1000 on tires. This is my second Bmw and I love the brand but I won't be buying another one.

#57 of 2421 Warranty on Run-Flats? by peachy810 Feb 24, 2006 (11:27 am)
I have decided to get a new 325i, but am still concerned about RFT's. What about the tire/wheel warrranty? Does it cover full replacement? Is the price of the warranty negotiable?

#58 of 2421 Run Flat Flat by bjsbmw Feb 27, 2006 (10:50 pm)
In Jan I picked up my new 325ix wagon with pirelli run flats. At 250 miles had a flat tire. Dealer recommended buying a new tire, but I requested plugging it. I'm just waiting to get through this winter - too hard for snow conditions, not great traction but then I'm used to Blizzak. Not willing to buy a new run flat tire - only thing not covered in the warranty...
#59 of 2421 Run flats - you still need a spare. by coges Feb 28, 2006 (12:08 pm)
I have a 120i with run flat tyres and no spare. I have had 2 punctures in 12 months. The tyres cannot be repaired. They cost over A$500 each. If you have a puncture, you can drive for 200km at 80kp but in Australia, it is very easy to find yourself over 200 km from a major city and if you get a puncture you can be stranded. Run flats may be safe, but they don’t eliminate the need for a spare tyre.
