Hi, as RFT tyres have been introduced some years ago for previous generations. What do you think when u use a car without spare tyres ? Though punctured RFT tyres can still run for 80-100KM, but when u drive around for tyre shops who sells RFT tyres can be a real challenge. There are some owners changed the RFT tyres to normal tyres, is there any concerns over warranty ?

I know a lot of folks who change to non-RFT. Way cheaper and you can get better performance tyres. I carry around a spare tyre now and a sealant kit as well (kiasu abit)
 
I happen to have an extra RFT originally taken from my 397 rims 18" 225/45.. any takers? cheap cheap la take for your use as a spare. PM me
 
If we change the RFT tyre to non-RFT tyres... Is there a space that we can keep the spare tyre into the bonnet?

No special place for your spare tyre. You will have to sacrifice your normal cargo space.
 
Hi Patrick;

What brand is your RFT? Which production year?

if you buy the spare tire kit made for bmw, it comes with it's own harness which can be strapped down in the boot...
definitely won't move around but the downside is, you lose precious boot space...
