tire store, (unless it's within ~50-75 miles), and that local tire store
that you limp to is probably not going to have a replacement RF for your E70, imo.

Just helping you with ammo for the discussion with your wife,

LOL, good points....

However, i'm not worried about when the car is near home, but moreso the 750mile drive to the Alps on 21st Dec, the hard shoulder on the french autoroutes can be very lonely that time of year !!

Will try these options 1st, if nogood, i'll wing it with the normals....


Rang a few BMW dealers up in scotland too, just to see if they had any info, especially with the weather you're in for. They said they have had lots of enquiries, but same story, no supply...
