Depends on the individual policy but yes. I have it on my wife's X5 which has the run flats and we've had three tires replaced. You pay for the replacement and then file a claim, receiving a check a couple of weeks later...

Ya true, I didnt pay much attention to the policy I was offered but 2 weeks a go the M5 picked up a nail in the rear... it was patched... but that got me thinking would that insurance policy that I was offered when I got the car replace this whole tire? or just patch it up for free?

I think I remember it costing about 1.5 tires or 2 tires... so I would have had to get them to replace 2 tires or more thoughout its life to make up for the cost. So I skipped it.
