Hi chap's.

Advice please, I need to start the process of selling my wife's Mini Cooper. It's a brilliant little car but when I drove it recently I noticed a lot of tyre/road noise/rumble.

Is this as it should be? Do the run flat tyres cause a lot of rumble/noise?

I hate the idea of selling a car if it is not as it should be.

Anyone have any views?

Regards
Mat

Yes run flats are very loud, might be worth checking for play in wheel bearings, does the noise get louder when going round a corner??


How much are you selling for ? im in the market for one smile

Thanks for the info, car sold within 2 hours on here!

Noise was just the run flats, as it did not get worse around corners I guess.
