Tyres:7 seater came with new non RFs but no inflation kit! What to do?

[weaselchops]

Hi all,

Finally got round to checking the tyres properly and they are new Grabber GTs. But don't seem to be RFs!

So do I replace the lot or get some kind of repair kit? If so, what?
Cheers

Personally I would get them off.  'Grabbers' used to be known for a more off road tread pattern.  Fine on a Land Rover or L200 pickup, but could be trouble on any of the X cars.  You don't have to use RFT tyres.

So if I went non RFT, a big can of tyre weld and an electric pump be enough?

I bought a tyre plug kit from eBay or Amazon, it has a reamer and a plug tool and about 20 plugs. I've repaired a nail hole without removing or deflating the tyre. £7  for the complete kit if I remember correctly .

I think Pinewood repaired a Runflats on his X3 with a similar kit, can't see why you wouldn't be able to use them on Runflats.

Thought so, thanks for the reply
