Question about non OEM wheels and tyers with puncture repair

On fleabay there are a lot of non OEM wheels like stormer etc. Is the quality there not so good as OEM?


There are seller that sell OEM tyers with puncture repair like this one:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RANGE-ROVER-20-ALLOY...53e405153f


What is the risk in buying such a set when there is on each tyre a puncture repair.


Thanks for your advise. Daniel

I wouldn't...

When I bought my RRS from new I thought I had factory fitted 20's as that what I ordered. Turns out they put fakes ones on, but's that another story...

When I would hit 60, there would be a vibration/wobble...didn't think much about it until I had original fitted and it disappeared.


Tyres, wouldn't want my family in a car without the best tires I could afford... Thumbs Up

^^^ What he said Smile ^^^

Give me OEM wheels everytime and decent tyres.

But the ebay link looks to be for perfectly fine tyres with a pucture repair. If it's done properly they should be fine.

OE range wheels are made to exact standards and WILL take the stress and strain of a heavy FFRR, after market might not..puncture repairs are fine if repaired properly, you only have the sellers word that the tyres have been repaired to british standards.. ... - .- -.
