Re: Run Flat tyre puncture repair scandal.

Re: X5 virgin saying Hi! :D

Have to agree about the wheels.
I am new to the x5 and when looking for one it was the wheels that put me off on many.
Got mine last Thursday(8th Dec) and it comes with the standard 19" tiger claw(i think that is the name).

I  also have a 320d but being disabled i was finding it hard to get out of it (i could fall in it lol). Few jobs to do on the x5 so no-doubt i will do your heads i...
