I have never owned a BMW under any kind of warranty but I would expect the Dealership would provide a new tire at not cost...and it would seem prudent to have the other 3 tires inspected.

Good Luck/Bill
Thanks Bill.

I hate to replace these only to experience the same issue.

Perhaps I may be the only one who experienced this issue on the X3?
It seems an unusual failure. I run regular (non Runflats) and carry a plug kit and compressor- ride quality with regular tires is superior to runflat. Maybe something to consider for your next set of tires.
