likesthetopdown Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I no longer buy run flat tires. What do you use in case of a flat? Any one buy a spare tire kit or know a good resource? Thanks
1990LS400 Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 This question has come up many times but not in quite a long time. I just checked and saw lots of SC430 spare tires and some full kits on eBay. 1
07is250ed! Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Check out bimmerfest.com. BMW has been using RFTs for years, and many owners swap them out for non RFTs. RFT or not, BMW's mobillity kit or the Dynaplug repair system and mini pro inflator will provide a way to repair a flat, in some cases, without removing the wheels. I bought both for my wife's new BMW X1.... (Yes, I know she'll never use them!)Wish the damned thing had a spare tire ... RFTs are a royal pain, from my perspective... www. bimmerfest.com www.dynaplug.com ( or buy their stuff on Amazon...)
likesthetopdown Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 Thank you! I agree with your comments on RFTs and my trunk is small without adding a spare tire kit. Your information and resources are wonderful. I learn something new every day. :-)
gasser Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 I no longer buy run flat tires. What do you use in case of a flat? Any one buy a spare tire kit or know a good resource? Thanks I switched to regular tires and bought from Tirerack their Continental inflaror kit which for $75 includes an excellent air pumpt and a bottle of sealant which is supposedly safe for TPMS. Takes up a lot less space than the spare!!!
