Characteristics of runflat tires on a Mini vehicle

Model: Mini Mini R60, Countryman1 - Years 2010-2016
Part: Wheel

In this video, we see the difference between a regular tire and a runflat tire, which means with reinforced sidewalls that can support the tire even in case of puncture, for about 80 km at a speed of 80 km/h. This allows us to easily reach a repair center without any issues, while maintaining full control of the vehicle, even with a flat tire, and without damaging the rim or the tire itself. The structure of a tire consists of the sidewall, the bead, and the tread, and in the footage, it is possible to clearly see the difference between a regular tire and a runflat tire. These tires are particularly suitable for low temperatures, making them perfect as winter tires.

How to Replace the Number Plate Bulb on Citroen C3
