Tyre & Rims

[kay7475]

hi guys, new here to this forum.live in dubai and i just bought a 2nd hand 07' e92 330ci..they are on run flats but 1 of the front tyre has got a bump on it( a part of the tyre is swollen) i'm thinking of changing all fours to the normal tubeless .any recommendations?
1. would it affect the on board tyre pressure sys?
2. is the ride gonna be smoother cos the ride now is quite hard ?

the rims are quite scratched on the front 2 tyres.think previous owner must have scrapped the curb.is there a place to re-condition them?

the tyre specs are 225/40/r18 bridgestone potenza .anyone wants the lot when i change them soon? make me an offer and its yrs..
thanks in advance for yr advices
k.w.

hi :hi: and :welcome2: to our forums ;)

in terms of ride comfort & performance it's better to switch to non-RFTs but in terms of safety & less issues RFTs are obviously the way to go..

if you're thinking of non-RFTs check with our sponsor Pirelli, but check your rear tyre sizes as well since the 224/40 are probably the fronts :)

to fix the curb rash contact our sponsor Falcon's Garage & they can do it :D

Sharjaj scrapyards and tire shops would be the right place to search, im sure its not impossible to get the Alpina rims there, you just need to hunt :)
