[QUOTE="Mun, post: 387509, member: 17916"] Just got back from a tyre shop in Sunway. The guy said he can do the repair but not the conventional punch from outside. His advice: if you do lots of highways RFT maybe beneficial and if you don't mind the stiff ride. If just around the Klang valley not that critical - can opt normal tyres. He quoted around 1200 for the 18' rear RFT but I didn't ask further what make. But it seems RFT is just a little bit dearer. The question now is how safe are patched tyres, RFT vs normal. Astroboy recommend not to go beyond 200kmh on the RFTs. that sucks! If a patched up normal tyres can do ( I've probably have done it on my previous car), then normal tyres is probably the way to go for me ( with some kits and compressors ). And lighter car too!
