It seems that X-bimmers on very low profile tires are very sensitive to potholes. Especially with run-flat-tires.
After spending S$535 on the Saturday morning the tire was eventually replaced with a new one :-)

I ripped mine on standard '17's. That's why I would never even consider having low profile tires in M'sia. Although they look really good. Anyways, congrats on the X5 ! Looks absolutely amazing.
