bumping for update.
i actually ran into a similar situation. i just bought an '08 e92 328xi and after a couple of run-ins with potholes, 3 (that's right, three) of my wheels got dent/bent to a point where it feels like my car's running on moggles during high speeds. bmw said that the wheels are more susceptible to hard impacts because the run-flats, unlike regular tires, have a solid sidewall and more stiffer in general, so hard hits goes directly to the wheels. sucks really, had the car for a week and i'll probably have to throw a couple of grand for new wheels and tires (not sticking with run flats anymore).
anyone know if the warranty covers the stock wheels? i got that warranty that covers the run-flats, wonder if they'll be nice and cover the wheels too.
