MY COMPLAINT IS THAT THE RUN FLAT THAT COMES WITH THE VEHICLE IS SO UNSTABLE THAT ANY FLIGHT BUMP ON THE ROAD RESULTS IN A BURSTED TIRE. EVEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY IS NO EXCEPTION. I HAVE HAD TO CHANGE THE TIRES DO OFTEN THAT I AM NOW VERY RELUCTANT TO DRIVE THE CAR. I HAVE EVEN CONTACTED BMW CUSTOMER SERVICE TO COMPLAIN BUT TO NO AVAIL. I BELIEVE THIS PARTICULAR MODEL HAS A MISMATCH OF THE TIRE WIDTH AND SPECIFICATIONS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AS THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ROAD SAFETY ISSUE.
