$750 restocking fee?? Sounds like BS. You can schedule your lease end inspection before it’s due and see what they may charge and then fix it before turn in.
If you don’t want to get dinged return the car per your signed agreement. If the car is damaged, tires are bald etc prepare to pay especially if you don’t plan to lease another BMW. You will need to schedule a lease inspection within the last 30 days or so and that inspection should indicate exactly what they will ding you for if it’s not under normal wear and tear.
If you plan to lease another BMW then you may be able to get the dealer to absorb that into your next lease.
If the tire tread is less than 4/32" then you need to replace the tires.
Best bet is to look around your local CL or FB marketplace and see if someone is selling take-off’s from a similar BMW. Has to be the same brand, size, and spec as OEM. eBay also works too. I’ve always just put $200 used tires on my lease returns if they needed it and been just fine.
Highly recommend bestusedtires.com. Got a set of OEM BMW RFTs for our X1 with a ton of tread for $350. Paid $100 to have them mounted locally here in Seattle.
I called BMW Financial and told them I lost a key. $600 from the dealer for a new one which I didn’t want to pay, surprisingly the lady said don’t worry, keys get misplaced all the time and I’ll put a note in the account to waive the fee for the key…which I think was only a few hundred anyways. Give them a call.
I havent lost a key fob but the cost is usually $250-$500 depending on the car.
Funny how so many people get out of paying for non return keys when it says in contract keys must be returned or a charge of X amount will be applied to end of lease return.
I recently bought 2 from bestused and 2 from utires for our X3 that will be turned in this summer. Neither had a complete set. My local independent shop mounted and balanced them. The tires ranged from 8/32 to 9/32. Highly recommend going that route👍
The tires can be any brand they just need to be the correct size. Maybe Miami market is good for something finally. $450 for a set of used tires mounted is nuts. I get a set for $100 max down in Hialeah.
All 4 for $200. Found a local guy who got a CPO 335i and immediately got different tires, and was unloading his oem run flats that were the exact same one on my wagon.
Dealer charged $100 to mount and balance all 4 at the lease turn in. Literally had the tires in the trunk and turned it in that way. worked out great.
