Did anyone take the £500 tyre protection and alloy scuff protection out?(OPC)

Three years, five tyres replaced, and five alloy repairs five max. Each repair and tyre can't exceed £300. I've a polished edge on my alloys, so this seems an OK deal. I'll cover 3-5k miles per year. I've had a rear puncture and a new tyre on my last 997 C4S. Does not seem a bad deal? As long as the alloys are fixed well, but would be by the local OPC garage/smart.

Dean just check the T&Cs from the sound of it you have diamond cut faces on your alloys , these can only really be redone once then you will have to settle for std refurbs. the advantage of the tyre warranty will be that time when you get a puncture and pump in the gunk as no spare this will mean they will have to supply you a new tyre when you get to the OPC as the gunk filled one is not reusable or so they love to tell us :grin: payback time :floor: so one puncture and a couple of refurbs and you have saved the monkey spent on the cover.
 
My new tyres come with a manufacturer warranty and the local alloy place is only £65 per wheel, fully stripped and redone.
