Tyre Prices - AUS

Just wondering if anyone knows how much the 17" run flats (that go on the S-Spokes) cost?

I just want to know how kind I should be to them!

Also how many KM's should these tyres normally last?

I think the "consensus" is that they are (currently) around $500 a pop. Unfortunately it's only the Mini Cooper's that have the Runflats in that particular size.

So until we get more Coopers in the country, the prize ain't gonna go down much. Saying that I believe one of the Mini2 members works for a tyre garage and mentioned "Mini2" rates on tyres :-D :-D

who was that? wherever you are!?!?

I might look at getting a tyre repair kit and swapping them out for some regular performance tyres when mine run out...
I have done 27500 km and they are about 30-40% worn..
