Tire replacement options

Quick question her looking for options and opinions. Current 2011 335 is up on the lease in early July
Currently running run flat tires. These things are too expensive to replace for 10 weeks for me.
2 of the tires are down and may. It make it so I was wondering if anyone can recommend any options for replacing the two without using to shell out a grand for replacements.
I don't want to spend the money and return the car.
Any less expensive alternatives?
Thanks in advance

What size rims? If they are the 19" I have some barely used continental DWS tires I can sell you for cheap. See ad here at e46fanatics. I'm pretty sure they are the same size as on a 335 with 19's.

If not, just search tire rack and choose el cheapos.

Nope. I'm wrong not quite the same size. Sorry... The 19"s on a 335 are just a bit smaller...

I checked the lease and apparently I have to return the car with run flats with 3mm or more of tread
Bit the billet and found a set at tire shop close by for $300 less than the dealer.
Thanks for checking for me though

Tirerack.com is my preferred source and yes, lease returns require RFT when those tires are OEM (because there is no spare).
