[lsm1991]

Yep ure absolutely right...PLUS help comes with 4wd pickup can't even tow the car since they don't have the equipment...all they can do is to escort me to safe place (usually toll plaza), opened the tyre & send to tyre shop...happen couple of times but lucky the time I kena mostly nearby tol exit

I wish i can have an inflatable spare tyre

Oh man. I hate it when I hear that. I'm surprised you can still laugh. I have reached the point that I'd snap if anyone complained and usually shoot back "Next time you drive your car don't ask me to drive".

ahahaha evoque comes with 21" standard if not mistaken....changing 4 tires is like paying downpayment for another car

To be honest, i haven't had any tyre problem for about 1.5 years straight with the Clio RS that doesn't come with a spare tyre but a tyre pump.

But had plenty of tyre problems with my old BMV12 with 20x9.5 and 20x10.5 wheels even with new tyres when i used to drive it daily.

I suppose if your car, wheels and tyres are relatively stock and new, it is pretty okay to ditch the spare tyre for daily office / shopping cars. Do put it back in when traveling far or with family.

Any ideas why you had more tire problems with your BMW?

I also have not had any tire problems for over 4 years now, so that's why I took out my spares and only put back if travelling far.

I'd guess its due to the super low profile tires and the shitty roads here.

That's my guess as well but roads here actually pretty decent IMHO, not much potholes at least the places I've been to. I've seen way much worse.

Yeah, ixeo is right. That's my naughty car. It's low, there plenty of camber on the rear. Tyres I ran were 245/30/20 and 285/25/20 if I'm not wrong on custom DPE 3 piece wheels. Although the wheels see used and refurbished. So that's probably why. My experience with 19s and 20s are that if you run 35 series and below tyres, you'd better be more alert with tyre pressures

I've ran with zero air in one of the rears and couldn't feel it. Needless to say it blew and had a handful at 160kmh on NS highway.

However, if tyre pressure is normal there shouldn't be any chance for a blow out.

Therefore I'd urge everyone to invest in a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), it'll Make a difference between a quick visit to the petrol station and a huge nightmare

Really zero air and could not feel it?? Should have noticeably bad traction already, wiggling sensation coz it's at the rear. Or you're using RFT?

Anyway that's why I'd never use such waffer thin tires even if I have the budget.
