Well, after almost not reaching the top of the mountain (yep, live in Switzerland), I found out my Dunlop runflat where close to death.
Couldn't find an alternative for those 185/50 R17 86H Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D

Has anyone found a non-runflat alternative as I don't like the ride with runflats :serious: ?

Thanks in advance...

  1. Rear calliper/pad click

    Wheels, Tyres & Brakes
    Hi I have had ongoing issues with my rear passenger side calliper. I brought new callipers, pads and braided brake lines in January this year. I had them fitted and all was ok for about a week, then the clicking started! It would appear the pad was slightly moving in the calliper carrier. The...

It doesn't do it all the time but is there the majority of the time, mainly when the car is warm. It started the day I...

  5. Spongy brakes on an R52 - no obvious leaks

    Wheels, Tyres & Brakes
    Our 2005 R52 passed its MOT test last week (mandatory yearly checkup here in the UK). The garage noted that the brakes were a little spongy, although they still seemed to work ok on the real & rolling roads when being tested. Also, they couldn't see any leaks in the braking system and by...

  6. What are my wheels?

    Wheels, Tyres & Brakes
    Our 2011 R56-S came with the 12-spoke 17" alloys shown below. Sadly on closer inspection, the DIY black paint job seems to have been brushed on! I've been quoted £85+vat to have each one stripped & re-coated in satin black, plus the wheels would need to be away from the car for over a week...
