Hi All!
I have a tyre emergency,
Both my two front runflats(18" S-spokes) are down to the metal (infact one has lost a whole strip of rubber off it!).
Now I'm not too keen on getting runflats as a replacement - seem a little expensive!
What are my options - my priority is more on the cheap and comfy side, not really into performance.
But!
What are the insurance/roadworth implications??
Thanks!!

Have a look in the tyre forum there is a thread dedicated to Australian tyres
