M Mobility kit or this Airman kit? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

halB · 05-27-2007, 09:20 PM

Has anybody tried this Airman kit?? It's a lot cheaper than the M Mobility kit but I am not sure how good it is.

I will be replacing the runflats with conventional tires in my future E93 and I'm not sure whether I should pay the high price for the M Mobility kit.

I bought the Airman. it's made by Continental.

I haven't used it yet (knock wood)

I read a review on the Airman at Canadian Driver's web site... www.canadiandriver.com.

They gave it a thumbs up!

The sealant used by the Airman is made by Dunlop. The Airman itself is probably made by another company.

Continental has their own kit called the ContiKit which is on sale at TireRack.

Any of the three should be fine.

Called three WalMarts, none had them or even knew what I was talking about. Tried walmart.com, no listing. EMailed 1010tires. com (a Canadian company), they dont' sell them. Any other ideas?

shragon · 05-31-2007, 09:30 PM

hmmmm thought the airman was only available in canada?
