Ill just look for some new rims
OK... now I know...

for a two month stint.... I would just get a set of tires and wait for my new ride to come in... that way you're safe and not sorry...

+1, at least get them on the rear and get them to replace tires.

Tires are basically new, like the car. Looks like a defect = warranty replacement.

I would get the dealer to sign off on all the damages - similar to what they do when you rent a car.

Also, have them replace the tire ASAP. That's just asking for trouble.

Tires don't just bubble on their own. Bubbles come from impact damage. Rubber band tires + shitty roads in the north east = bubbles in tires if your not super careful.

i once got a bubble from the guys at the tire shop, when they were trying to remove the tire to repair a flat, he used some kind of metal stick to pry it off and it bent the tire

lol I was thinking about that too, I wonder if they would sell it back at 10% of the book value like the insurances companies do when a car gets totaled

7k for a 2011 M3 =D :dreamcometrue:

That is how tires are taken off. (tires will be stretched to get on and off, They have to be or they wouldnt stay on the rim)

Tires will bubble own there own, but they have to be built poorly to do so. But mostly happen at high speeds and potholes, displacing the bands.

Bubbles don't occur in tires unless two things are involved...

Glad it worked out, but they could have done better than what they did:

Fix your M3, then give you a new 328i as "compensation". Two cars, a beater and a track beast. That would have been fair.
