QUOTE(epjx31 @ Nov 30 2022, 05:14 PM) Run flat tires are tires which have a very thick sidewall to support your car's weight when there is no pressure. So which one more cost effective against puncture or long run?Self sealing tires are tires which has a layer of rubber inside the inner liner to seal what whatever puncture you have. In my opinion, run flat tires are technically much better as it does not limit your size of puncture & it does not mess up your rim. It is also much more available in the market due to OE tire specs. Have not seen much self sealing tires in Malaysia market tho Run flat tyre you still need to get your tyre fix during punctures except that it allowed you to run to workshop and drive normally to workshop without problem... As for self sealing tyre it fixed itself with the preinstalled sealant inside the tyre wall. Run flat tyre is thick on the sidewall and this can affect FC of the car in long run due to thick wall of the tyre and heavier rubber material. So mind to share your opinion ? |
