Tim,
There has been a question raised about whether insurance companies need to know it you swap the run flat tyres to non run-flats. I have done this and so have many others, for cost and comfort reasons.
Where do Chris Knott stand on this issue?

Re: Question about run-flat tyres
I had to pay about £15.00 extra I think it was, I thought If I had an accident the insurance Co would renage on any claim so better safe than sorry.sp3ctre wrote:Tim,

We are fine with most mods but we always need to be told about them!

Re: Question about run-flat tyres
So you would class normal tyres as a "mod"? Some people on this forum have had BMW fit normal tyres instead of runflats before teking delivery. It seems to be a very grey area with insurance companies.

Tbh, just to be on the safe side, declare them. There shouldn't be any increase.
