Okay, i just got a call from the technician from the BMW dealership, and there stating that the scrapping sound is caused by the type of paint i used to paint my rims black and the tire itself (which is OEM, runflats). Now, i think that is the most bulls*it excuse i have ever heard of.

If the sound is caused by the paint i used for my rims, then why is it only the right side making the noise, and not all 4 wheels? When i had my Subaru WRX, i used the same paint to paint my rims black, and i never had any scrapping sounding issue at all.

Does anybody else think that the technician blaming the scrapping sound due to the type of paint i used for my rims, is bulls*it? In my opinion, i don't think they can fix the sound, let alone detect what's causing the sound, which is why there blaming something as easy as the paint on my rims.

And i used high temp. rim paint to paint my rims.
