Wish they would do it here in the US, but unlikely.
The roads around NYC and northern NJ are pretty horrible. Anyway it may be cheaper to just get tires from other retailers. I'm pretty sure the price you're paying for tires at the dealer will be ridiculous anyway

Does this language exclude sidewall bubbles from potholes?

I will take the 4 year 50k warranty we get here in NA over the 2 year unlimited mileage warranty they get in Europe.

Add this to the 1.5-3 times the cost that overseas customers pay for the same car and this 36 month tire protection is not even a microscopic piece of fat on the bone they are being tossed by BMW.

Quit your bitchin' you bunch of spoiled/self entitled damn Americans......

Who buys tires from a dealer? I don't know when the last time I or my friends bought a tire at any dealer.

the way I read that is you only get the warranty when you buy a wheel or tire set. it doesn't come with the car.

If you paid $2200 from the dealer you way over paid.

That's more to do with taxes, than pricing.

My brother-in-law would have appreciated having a program like this on his Mercedes when he encountered a huge pothole with his RFT.

BMW already offers this here in the US largely.

It is offered for the first year.

https://bmwusaservice.com/tires/roadhazardtirecoverage

The coverage in the EU is a bit better in that you get 75% coverage for year 2 & 3 and the US you only get 100% coverage for year 1.
