Actually, I beg to differ.
For my M3 I never got it, but for the 760Li different story
I went through 3 cracked rims because of potholes, couple of winter and summer tires.
Mind you they did give me some trouble but it was all sorted eventually as there was a change in warranty company between when I purchased the tyre warranty and later when claims were made.
I think with the 20" individual M rims and 18" Alloy wheels for winters, having gone through one tyre and rim replacement more then made up for the cost of the warranty.
However 2K does seem steep?
I paid that for my 5yr/96KM service inclusive plan on the M which covers all wear and tear items including the service inclusive parts, which I think would be a better insurance policy as it stays with the car and can enhance resale value!
So it all comes down to your driving style and whether you have to deal with toronto potholes!
