just a thought from an experience I had in France two years ago ,I had no spare wheel in a Hyundai at the time , and only had a tyre repair kit . I had a nail go through the tyre , the repair kit eg foam did not work , spent two days getting the right tyre .
just Brought a MX5 came with a repair kit only , so my question is when you do these trips how do you get over this problem in Europe, as it’s impossible to take a spare tyre and luggage and two people ?
Hi, we did the Circuite Historiqe in Laon a couple of years ago, I was concerned over the same issue. I ended up putting a semi permanent sealant into each tyre? 4 sachets from eBay for £20. Still in there and not had a puncture ( or none that I know of ) Couple of points though, regularly check your tyres for foreign objects which TBH you should do regardless, if the car stands a lot like mine, the liquid settles to the bottom of the wheel and when you set off, the wheels are out of balance? It soon redistributes around the wheel though? A mile or so and its fine? The liquid is water soluble and can be washed out, it’s not going to offend a tyre fitter, or shouldn’t? Other good point, never lost tyre pressure since installing
I use a Nissan GTR in Europe and the tyre sizes are 285x20 front and 305x20 rear so like you spares are not provided. I also have a tyre repair kit and the foam. But I also have the premium Green Flag recovery insurance and I have been assured by them that they will recover the car in the event of a puncture. The problem then would be getting the tyres. Fingers always crossed.
