OK, probably been asked a lot before, thinking of removing my run flats on my F10, 18inch wheels, could of questions...

1. Looking at Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2, any thoughts seems a good tyre of the value?


2. Inflation kits, Continental kit over a slime kit, again any thoughts?

I would look at the new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 as well.

Two things to keep in mind while using Tyre Sealants

1) Is the sealant water based? I think Slime is water based, not sure about Conti.

2) Is the sealant suitable for TPMS? Again, I recall that Slime did have a variant for TPMS - not sure this particular model is suitable or not?

Please do post as to what you chose finally... (both tyres & repair kit)

Kwikfit had Michelins on special offer last time I looked. Well priced!

with these sealants, I only found them to go up to a size 16" tyre.

can anyone provide link to a 20" version?

I bought a can of Holts Tyreweld (500ml) when they switched my old company car onto normal tyres. I had to use it once, on a totally flat tyre and it worked really well. It expands, seals the hole and all you have to do is drive it for a bit then find somewhere to top it up with air.

I'm sticking with run flats on this car, as it's mine and my choice.

Amazon. Search for "Slime 60090". 20oz sounds big enough. Or just buy 2 small cans.
