I just bought a '11 E90 ZCP with 70K miles. Owner did TA as well as some other maintenance items (DCT gasket/thermostat/etc). Im the third owner and not having any service records for the first owner, I decided to get my RB done. They came out pretty clean and could probably have gone another 50K+ miles without worry.
End of story: If you know the history of the car (warmed up properly), has service records and is a late (>2010) model M3 with newer aluminium RB, I wouldn't worry about it too much. I'd say be more prepared for TA failing first in the above scenario
