checked my tyre pressues yesterday and they were quite low , i have normal staggered 18 "wheel set up sticker says 2.0 bar front 2.3 bar rear , is this what most guys are running ? AND my mrs asked what i wanted for birthday , i said a mini comressor looked at a ring rac630 any one got one or any other recommendations cheers

I have a Ring/RAC 600 which fits under the floor in the boot if you have Std Radio setup

cheers , does that one switch off when correct pressure is reached ? i think the 630 is same size so good it fits there , handy when i loose the run flats

Tyre pressures are on the inside edge of the drivers door (on the main bodywork). In this cold weather tyre pressures will always show lower when cold (remembur scoul fizzics!).

The ring/RAC unit does come with some form of sealant? The Ford/BMW ones appear to discharge the sealant at the same time that air is being supplied to the damaged tyre?
