I think the BMW issue is more to do with a manufacturing defect than improper fitment and they will replace under warranty if there is a problem.

Maybe Stuc - I thought they had got just too close to tolerances trying to keep unsprung weight down - it appears to be more of a problem in third world country roads like ours.................... :evil:

Got a reply from eBay wheels

Wheels are 690kg per wheel and the tyres would be 98W
