My dealer was quite happy to swap and understood! (Actually the service person had 19" non-RFs on his car)

Ok, ok, just kidding ... too much turkey.
Like everyone else just said, changing the types of tires will notvoid the warranty. This also begs the question, assuming changing the tires did void the warranty, what part of the warranty would be voided???

[/quote]Too much turkey alright. How about the part of the warranty covering the BMW part that failed because of using out-of-spec wheels/tires? I can't say what BMW part might fail though. Maybe premature brake wear could occur because of excessively increased rolling resitance from the installation of wheels/tires that are way too heavy/big.

[/quote]ipse d and I were kidding/speculating. I was not addressing the original issue. I was just speculating on how wheels/tires could affect one's warranty.

We should let this thread die a quiet, unassuming death. Don't want to give BMW any ideas about warranty coverage/denials ...
