18" Non-performance/RFT

Design1314 · 09-07-2007, 02:41 PM

Where can I get 18" all weather/non RFT tires that would fit the style 189 perfectly and without any computer error caused by the TPM? and how much are they?

What do you mean would fit the style 189 perfectly? If I'm not mistaken, you want to find 18" all-season non-RFT tires in the factory equipped size?

anywhere, firestone, sears, goodyear. Just tell the tire guys you want the same size tire in non RFT and he will pull it up on the computer and you can choose the one you think will work for you. As far as TPM, your current rim should have it already unless it is damage druing the tire installation which means you have to pay for a new one.

So the TPM will work fine with the non-RFT without any errors?

I hope you're not going to change tires from the rims every season. Just check ebay. I bought 4 BMW rims that have the Conti. runflats that came off their 4 wheel drive car. They upgraded rims and tires. $500 plus shipping. Now I have tires and rims for the winter and summer sport tires and rims.

I really don't and hate to change tires every seasons. Thats why I want all season tires, many people says the RTFs are bad on NYC roads.

Well, let me know if you replace your stock tires.

I believe it will work without any error on nonRFT. I dont think the sensor is that smart to know if the tire is RFT or nonRFT.

You want to buy the RFTs from me?

TPMs will work w/ non RFT as long as you have the correct tire sizes (Only 3 brand has correct fitments for all-season 18s - Pirelli, Yoko and Kumho IIRC)
I had my 189s on Yoko Advan S4s before I switched over to 162s.

Absolutely love the ride after the switch to the non-RFTs
