    can't get rid of the run flats completely as the dealer will reduce your trade-in if they have non run-flats on when you go to trade in. Keep them in the garage for trade-in time..

    Really, they probably want to reduce your trade in by about £800 no doubt.

    JC's in Aberdeen fixed a 16" runflat for me 3 years ago, but apparently BMW's procedures have changed since :evil:

    I'm with BS on this. Have just put new runflats on S spokes. Don't want Sioban with a pucture at night somewhere, if I'm away. Cost me same price as F1's I put on previous wheels. More noise but a necessary compromise.
