Tyre availability in UK

My 40i MSport is on order and I was just checking online to see what RFTs are available for the standard wheels. Previous experience shows obtaining runflats for BMWs at short notice can be tricky.

I've tried ATS, Kwikfit and Black Circles, and so far - NO REPLACEMENT TYRES ARE AVAILABLE.

I know it's very early days for normal wear, but a damaged tyre would need replacement.

Has anyone else looked into this? What is your experience?

Thanks

Try oponeo?

Even BMW takes a couple of days to get them in...

You're quite pessimistic! We must have been lucky with our X5, X6 and JCW! BMW dealers are you're answer with no other choice.

So you can use pretty much any brand of tire, they all make 275/45 R20 sets, RFT's are a little harder but should be an easy find in due time
