At $400 per pothole there is no budget that can take this abuse. Isn't it time we start a letter writing campaign urging BMW to stop the practice? If we could just stop buying their cars they would do it immediately

Here is an alternative but you will need to have AAA service or a spare, tools and a jack in the trunk:

Great reviews for this tire and under $1,000 for a set.
Thanks for the link, I'll be seriously thinking about changing all my tires if they are robbing another 400 bucks from me again!
I talked to BMW assistance and they did typed down my experience, I don't know what they will do after that... they said that I should call them back after examined by the dealership
