Probably not, but worth a try. What would your approach be?

Being a long term BMW owner I expect smalls things to go wrong with the occasional big ticket item (alternator, water pump, etc.).

Tenafly will sell them to you painted. (I'm sure other dealers will as well)

I had a nail and lost pressure in my other X5 35i and Goodyear Tire patched it for $50 no problem. The nail was in the middle of the tread so it was okay to repair. Same Dunlop tire.
