Tyres and warranty?

To keep the mini warranty valid, do you have to change your tyres at a mini or can you change them anywhere? e.g. due to wear and tear.

Also any idea how much run-flat tyres cost?

I have existing run-flat tyres now so when they are due for a next change, I am thinking of not having run-flats - is this poss?

You can get your tyres done anywhere, it wouldn't affect the warranty, yes you can put non runflats on, but wouldn't reckomend mixing them with run flats, also if you do make sure you get a tyre weld gel or the likes in case you do get a puncture.

For 17 inch alloys varies from about £130-£180 each, BMW dealers will charge more otherwise call around some other suppliers like quick fit who I think do do run flats.
