As some may recall, I have a f30 on order, due end of the month.

I have got an extra set of alloys included. So Im using the stock ones as winter wheels( fitting my current winter tyres) and have a set of 19" too.

I can pay to have the garage stick their tyre Pirelli RF for a decent price to be fair, or should I explore the option on fitting my own tyres, allowing me to use non-run flats. All the current tests are obvious on the run flats and they have had no complaints re ride, I have the adaptive suspension as per test cars.

I rewad recently abut BMW warranty being void due to non approved tyres?! Also I got them to include alloy well insurance, is it then best to use their tyres because of this?

Any options on tyre choice welcome!

BMW may be best placed to give you this answer / read their T&Cs

An I right in thinking that use of anything but their tyres will void the warranty?

I spoke to my local BMW dealer about this as well as I was thinking of replacing the runflats on my E92 with non runflats and his answer was that tyre type and brand in no way affected warranty.
