Gents, Also had the cracked alloy wheel issues, BMW did pay up, my concern is when the car comes out of warranty as this is a manufacturing defect and what do we do then?
Here's a newer story in What Car on the issue and I believe Watchdog are picking the story up again when they come back on air.

Incidentally. For new tyres, If you are replacing like for like ie: Bridgestone RE050 run flats, Kwik Fit on line appear to be the cheapest I can find. You can get a full set for £930. If anyone knows anywhere cheaper, please let me know. I have found keeping the rears at 41psi and the fronts at 37psi, my wear pattern has moved to the centre of the tyre rather than the inside edge, but I am having to check them every 2 to 3 weeks.
