RFT 313 Reps

Has anyone used RFT on 313 reps?

Have 19 MV4 225's but want a cost effective solution to update the look by replacing with 313's retaining my existing new tyres.

Sooner or later your MV4 will crack. Happen to both my rear MV4's. Some people had 313's cracked on OEM ones. Reps would not be different, i would imagine they are a little more prone to cracking as i think they are weaker but i had my 313 reps for 2 years on NON runflat and never had any cracking issues Excuse the pun haha

Oem rims have a lip inside them to stop the tyre detaching,you put RFT on replica rim it doesn't have this.The RFT tyre needs this to work or can come off dangerously under a rapid deflation.
