www.tirerack.com offers great prices but if you need a tire right now and you're only buying one you might be better off going to national tire vendor like Town Fair Tire or NTB. Town Fair Tire price matches.

That might take some shopping - thought you had a hurry up gotta flat need a tire right now ?? You already got advice about local shops. Wherever you get a replacement tire be sure they can install it correctly without messing up your rims. And, believe it or not, you should call your BMW dealer - sometimes they have replacements / takeoffs / originals sitting around and will work a deal with you.

Also, check the for sale section in the forum.

I did need a tire until I discovered the rim has a crack. Since I was planning to buy rims anyway I figured that I should just go ahead and get it; then fix the cracked rim.
