Looking to swap the run flats on my wife's 125i M Sport for normal tyres.

I know a lot of people have done this from previous posts on this forum, but I wondered if anybody has found a space saver that fits the front and back in case of a puncture.

Cheers for any help and advice.

Thanks for that. I spoke to a local BMW breakers and they are talking £85.00 for one if they can get hold of it, so I think I may go down the pump and tyre weld route.

Just another point, for anybody that took this route from RFT's to normal tyres, what brand have you gone for?

Also, is it wise to inform the insurance company of the change?

Cheers

Well, decided to go down the non-runflat route with a tin of tyre weld in the boot.

Just one question, I am assuming that the tyre pressure monitor will still operate without the run flats on?

Is this the case?

Does anybody know for sure about this?

Thanks
