I've had my M5 for about 3 months, so all this is new to me. I was heading to the airport on Thursday night when I heard a strange sound coming from the outside. About 30 seconds later, the sign came up that my rear left tire was low. I pulle dto the side of the road to inspect the tire and realized that this tire was completely flat. I called the BMW emergency and they sent a tow truck to pick up the car.
Now, I was barely able to get on the plane and the next day my wife calls me telling me the dealership wants to charge $580 for the tire. They actually could not find the tire in the US, so they had to order the tire and it could take about a week. I believe it's a run flat tire, but they told her that these tires are not in stock being that they are so rare( for an m5). Does this sound right?
