Try UK Tyres Online: Cheap Car Tyres Shop | Blackcircles.com, you can chose between just buying the tyres or buying and fitting the tyres, really good prices and loads of fitters nationwide. I've had superb service from them.

yer but would have to find some1 to fit them

Don't worry what the garages say about only fitting runflats... The rims you have can be used for either tyre type... For some reason tyre places seem to think that rims that come with runflats can only have runflats fitted. They'll fit them if you push... Tell them that Runflats are now a BMW option so you can have fitted whatever you like... I had mine changed at National Tyres. I'm not sure if you have one where you are.

yer we do, did they say anything to you bout them?

I think that when runflats first came out the BMW's that had them fitted had weird metric sized rims, now they fit them to standard size rims so you should have no issues changing over to normal tyres.

They just told me not to worry, it's just hype and they'll fit standard tyres without any problems at all.

At the end of the day it is the RF tyre that is diferent, not the rim itself.

215/40/18 will give you more tyre choices, or you can go 215/35/18 which will be a lower profile so not quite as comfortable...

Falken F452s are what I was going to give a try on my R95s before they got sold for 17s... they arent a bad price and have had very good reviews from mini owners running them...

They have a whole raft of dealers nationwide, just type in your postcode. Just don't go for one of the main rip-off merchants, i.e. Kwik-S**t.

I agree with Chris & after following his advice this is the site with the best price
They have a couple of places in my area for fitting so I think all will be good when I get round to sorting it out in a few weeks
