Tyred out

Just had a week of BMW loaners while my car was recovered from home and off the road. Reason for this......a nail in the tyre.

Continental had no stock in the UK or Germany of the correct tyre - 255/45 R 18 W 99 Contisport Contact 5 so BMW shipped one out when they received their next production delivery.

Must of cost them in excess of £1500 in support and cost me £300 for the new tyre, that was one expensive nail!!

I'm concerned about this too as I have the same size on the rear of my 328GT but the Pirrelli variant . Did some research found these guys have a good supply of both

I have a set for sale, but since you guys are in the UK, it would cost a tons to ship them over.

while the 325d has 218 bhp. On the other hand xdrive is not offered with 325d in Sweden, so if you want that you'll need to buy 330d.???
