Second, the dealers have been told that a flat is a priority. Moreover, dealers have been told to fix flats immediately. That's been my experience at 4 dealerships around the country. BMW removed the spare. BMW knows that it must make fixing flats a priority in order to prevent backlash with its decision to abandon spares. Now, you can't buck the system by bringing in your own bottle. Moreover, wheel and tire insurance will help you combat the sticker shock of having to pay retail for new tires or wheels. I think if you showed up to a dealer and they didn't have a tire in stock then you would qualify for a loaner. |

They wouldn't budge below $1,200 on the W&T, so I passed. I assumed the 225/45/18 would do better than my previous 235/35/19 and they definitely do, but this was a total freak thing. Last edited by erroberts1; 04-10-2015 at 04:36 PM.. |

Picked it up this afternoon. Got the price the parts guy quoted to me over the phone and only spent $60 in cab fare getting back and forth to this place in order to make it happen. Have I told you about my MBA?
This is why as soon as I tried to drive away I knew it didn't "feel right" even on RFT. Clearly this is due to a 1.5psi difference caused by highway debris inserting itself into my wheel and tire: Last edited by erroberts1; 04-10-2015 at 04:41 PM.. |
