talking of fighting the power and all, if there is a contact within BMW (UK) who is responsible for this, why dont we all write a letter requesting them to have an independant check done on the 19'' rims by MIRA to see if they are fit for UK roads. They clearly won't but if we can enough BMW drivers to request this then they may at least have to say that there is no problem with wheels, which will at least make them look really stupid when someone has an accident from a crack induced blowout oneday.

It's deffo more common than we think, there was a dude from DW who was painting his 230's and had to replace one cos it was cracked, there was an X5 on mtorque where the wheels had cracked too. The salesman at stratstone near me was saying a car he took in part ex had cracked rims too....
