Got flat tire again on my E90 330i. 3rd time in one year. Last time i could not get my hands on the Bridgestone Runflats cause it was on back order so I purchased Continental Contisport Contact 3's all around. Loved the tires for about 6 months but happened again last night, passenger rear. Stopped as soon as i got the flat tire warning light and got the car towed to VOB. Now the dealer is telling me i need new rims cause it got bent in the process. They are quoting me $1100 for new tire/rim/balance. To make the long story short, I said F$#% it and bought 19inch Hyperblack CSL Rims from **********, which i wanted to get soon anyway. I guess things happen for a reason. In the meanwhile i have my friend's 18inch CSL rims to install on my car as a backup. Thank god. I guess i should move out of DC to avoid all the nails or change my driving style?

Dude you have bad luck with nails...do you drive by construction sites as part of your daily commute?

i sure do. I commute to DC everyday, live in MD suburbs and in a new development area with dirt/gravel everywhere from dump trucks. I guess i just have to stick with it and drive careful with my new 19's.
