Run Flat Tyres

[Adrianli]

What’s the damage to do the internal patching

Never did the patching, changed tyre. But i know they do patching as i asked them and they said they do.

Found a tyre shop willing to do internal patching, South East Tyres. However on removal of tyres, realised i had destroyed my tyres with my type of driving. Too many hard launching from traffic stops. 390Nm on the two front tyres.

 

Found the nail but the tyre is useless. Lucky they had spare exactly the same take off tyres for me. Just nice, changed both front tyres. The rear tyres are perfectly fine.

Does not look like RFT tyres?

 

Also why they didn't install new pair at the rear - as per best practise?

Looks like run flats now?

 

 

 

I did not purchase a new pair of tyres. They were take off tyres from another same car as mine. They are relatively new.

Too much hard launching. Always wheel spin. Already changed.

I know the Tyre Shop next to Comcentre does internal patching

 

Any more shop doing?

 

Most of them all using the Plug and Worm which looks very weak

I've been driving a patched (twice!) RFT tyre since Sep 2016, 3 months after collecting my new car. Have clocked 43,000 km to date. So far so good. *fingers crossed*

 

Wow!  Your RFT tyre reached 43k km and still going strong!  Can I ask what brand is your RFT tyre?

Wah, you damn fierce leh.

Even the motorcyclist near my car at traffic lights also will "hung" tio. Wheel spin and zoom zoom off. 0 to 60km/h launch and then stay at 60km/h.

if you can show the pictures of inside of your damaged tire will be a good education for us. 

from outside of the pic it looks ok to me.

One thing for sure internal repair is the BEST in terms of Safety (it help to make sure the punctured tire is still safe to continue use after reapired .BUT repaired is repaired NO MORE track use or super fast driving type)

Sorry, didnt take any inside photos. Inside looks ok to me.

I recalled one of the criteria for RFT internal patching repair requirement is to check the internal sidewall for damage and speed/distance travelled.

Otherwise stage 1 tuning gone to waste mah. Left foot on brake and right foot on throttle. No 4k, i kiasee, 3k nia. Then pedal to the metal. And release, cruise along at 60km/h.

 

Like F1 starts.

[TameDriver]

how much u do your RFT inner patching??

 

my area no 1 want to do, all poke nia

 

Cannot recall exact amt, about $10-15.

Defu Lane area because I happened to be near there. Not a shop that specifically sells tyres, mostly staffed by older workers.
