[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 477127, member: 3592"] What you say is very true AB. My experience last year was an act of sabotage I believe. The gash from the inside was about 2 inches long, cutting across 3 steel ribs. No nail or screw could have done that, nor would any repair kit or sealant fix that. I was parked in a low cost flat area attending the wedding of my former driver's daughter. Not only did I not have to stop, my daughters were fast asleep at the back all the way home with [I]zero[/I] air in one rear tire. That incident sold me on RFTs for good. Life and limb are more precious than a few bucks. The sealant way has its own cons. If it stays liquid like it's supposed to, it should work, but you could be driving around at high speed after a puncture, without knowing that you have a puncture. If it coagulates over time and the heat of our roads, you'll probably have balancing problems and all 4 tyres will basically be screwed. IMO, better used in golf carts, bicycles and lawn mowers. Not Lim Tayar AB, Vision Auto (Toms') on Jln Maarof, Bangsar. :D [/QUOTE]
