It's a good plan. You must be absolutely loaded replace all 4 tires on one car for a puncture. And a lovely cottage to rent out in Cornwall plus your house where you live is beautiful. This KZbin business makes you a few quid on the side nice one. Well done congratulations cheers Phil from Newark

What you needed was the RAC. They use airbag jack and will fit a magical, fits all cars, spare wheel to get you to the tyre place. Then you leave the wheel there for RAC to collect.

I don't know about these later Minis but on the Gen1 a piece of 20mm plywood with a bit of Yoga mat glued to one side on the top the jack allows you to lift the car on the sill. If you position it below the door shut line it will lift both front and rear wheels if you jack high enough. The plywood spreads the load and the yoga mat prevents damage.

Charlie looks much better with a larger profile. One of the silliest things the car industry did was get rid of the spare wheel. Had this on my old Focus, a puncture that the inflation kit wouldn't of touched. Had to get taken to a tyre place by Green Flag :-(.

Hi Ped Very interesting tale of adversity, but right solution in the end. Your experience does highlight disadvantage with any modern cars - no spare wheel & jack and useless tyre repair kit😬😬 Reminds me of sidewall puncture in France with my 911 Carrera 4 S on a national holiday weekend. Porsche Assistance recovered the car to dealer in Dijon and provided a hire car no charge. It took 7 days to complete tyre replacement, but Porsche insisted that I had to replace both rear tyres, on basis new tyre would have 8mm tread depth and the other rear tyre had depth of 4mm, incompatible on 4 wheel drive. Total cost for two 305/30/R20 Eu970. OUCH😥 No room for spare wheel, foam kit waste of time, answer have a good breakdown service.

Next hassle was sourcing the 235/35 19 Run flats, as I needed two, almost impossible to find. Had to go through the dealer who had tyres available got stung $1k for the two with fitting…..:-(

Replaced the 4 Bridgestone Potenza with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 s (Front 235/35 R19Y and rear 305/30 R19 Y). Because they are different sizes, the car came with compressor and sealant. However because of the ceramic discs, if I had a puncture, don't know what I would do? . These tyres are not Porsche approved for Erica(997) but they are approved for newer 911s. I got between 12,000 and 14,000 miles per set of Bridgestones and I am going to be interested to see what the Michelins do. They are quieter, smoother and grip better in the dry and wet. Interested to see how you find them on the Mini

Arch gap be damned I'd be more interested in the ride comfort. The JCW Clubman is pretty stiffly sprung on it's standard sport suspension. Unless you have lovely smooth tarmac you're going to have a rough ride on 30 profile tyres. So glad I went for 18" wheels and adaptive dampers on our Clubman. I don't do track days in it so happy to lose some ultimate track performance in exchange for a car I can still enjoy on our p poor Norfolk back roads. Maybe Mrs PetrolPed damaged the tyre on purpose in the pursuit of a better ride. Thought about that?

God bless the truckers who stopped to help. Of course the part I remember most now is the child who announced as we came to a stop "Mrs. C I really, really need to pee right now.".

I’ve never seen streets as narrow! It’s a wonder the Sorento could fit! My first MINI had something similar happen. It was on 15” wheels and very few people stocked tyres that fitted (back in the day). She had to be carried away on a recovery truck and it took three days to get two tyres fitted. Like you, Pete, I always change them in pairs. I had three more MINIs after that, and kept them on runflats. The less comfortable ride was worth it for the peace of mind.

My Cavalier V6 acquired a set of 17” Italian wheels years back. The wheels were beautiful for their £800 price! But I found the ride too harsh, and eventually swapped the wheels for some 16” Vauxhall Omega ones. And I reckon that the Koni adjustables and Eibach coils PLUS 17” rims was just too severe for the suspension.

Your video highlights the issues with modern cars perfectly regarding tyre problems. That’s why the majority of breakdown call outs these days are tyre related. I agree with the principle of changing 2 tyres on the same axle, but most people would baulk at that. Had many an argument with fleet companies about changing two tyres, when I was doing 40k plus a year before I retired. Fleet companies want tyres to be nearly bald before they change them!! Left my car at a Kwikfit centre for a week once to prove a point. Good video Ped 👍😎

No, all Clubmans didn't come with run flat tyres. Only the 18's were run flat, the 19's weren't. That is why you have a compressor and tyre sealant, if you had run flats neither of these would have been supplied. A run flat tyre can be run for around 50 miles at speeds of up to 50mph giving plenty of time to get to a garage. If a run flat has lost pressure you wouldn't even know by looking/touching the tyre. It is ridiculous but manufacturers will go to extreme lengths to save weight!!

Hey Petrol Ped! Thanks in part to your channel my wife and I picked up a 2021 Countryman JCW this weekend. It’s a hoot to drive and extremely practical and I think we are going to love it. Thanks for the continued great Mini content and sorry that Charlie Clubman got a troublesome flat!

If they are run flats why didn't you just drive to the tyre fitter?

Oh the joys of motoring. Had a similar issue at Christmas this year, called out the breakdown company who over inflated the tyre and followed me home with an extra inflation on the way!

It’s a Runflat tire… you can literally run it when it’s flat… for a limited amount of time and with limited speed. Could have just driven to the replacement tires no? 😂 I once drove 1000 km with a flat RFT at highway speeds (didn’t know it was flat). Edit: just read a comment stating the tires weren’t RFT… in that case my comment is obviously nonsense :-)

2 things: 1)This appears to be a Scenario that mini didn’t allow for when they decided to go foam kit only. 2) the tangible power of having 100k subscribers and the benefits attached to that with the product placement blatantly shown here.... a bit cringe worthy.

Is this the first KZbin video you have watched? You try and get 100k subs and try to make KZbin a worthy income and refuse any freebies or help from companies that would benefit from your content.

Hi Pete looks much better. Never understand why manufactures give low profile tyres the time if day. Roads in the uk are rubbish these days its a disgrace! The roads in switzerland are fabulous and the only place you should have low profile! Still don't like those flaps! Sorry matey. 👍

How strange that the jacking points are so low. I use what looks like the same Halfords trolley jack on a boxster and it goes under with no problems.

I would have driven to the tire shop with the defected tire... The car is not full time 4 wheel drive if I remember correctly, so you should get away with it, but I know some drivers (Lambo Owners) who change the profile and rim size on their 4 wheel drive cars burnt or damaged the diff... Car still needs to be dropped an inch or so... Mud flaps.... loose those somewhere!

I now know the problem you faced there Pete, just had exactly the same on our Cooper, caught the rear tyre on a rockery in the front garden. BIG hole in tyre, that's when a problem became a real PITA! I knew I didn't have a spare...but no jack or wheel brace! Took 3 different jacks to find one that would fit under a Mini with a flat tyre and then had to leave it balanced on a scissor jack as I wasn't sure where we could position a trolley (a lot of plastic under there). It shouldn't be this awkward should it? If we hadn't been at home it would have been a real nightmare!...Loving the channel mate.
