Tire Replacement Cost

I got a nail in my right rear 20" sport tire.

I had purchased the road hazard protection when I bought the car.

Deluxe Plan $733.00... for 5 years coverage, $400 max for each tire, and $400 max for each rim with a $5000 lifetime benefit.

I was not aware of the details and was told the replacement price was covered by my plan. I learned about the $400 max afterward. My fault for not knowing the coverage. Run-flat tires cannot be repaired and must be replaced!!

35R20 Dunlap Tire = $648
BMW Labor = $122
Shop Fees = ??
Tax = $32.40

Total was $802.40 + because of one .10 cent nail.

My client advisor was good to me and knocked off the shop fees and gave me a credit voucher for $77.00 to help offset the total.

My price out the door... $325.40

I suggest to all others that get a nail to wait till your low air sensor kicks in so you can get the most out of your tire before being replaced.
