Oops. I thought he OP was talking about 20" wheels but didnt read close enough (or noitice his avatar) that he just has the OEM sport 19" with different sized tires. Still the spare wont cause a problem with the 19" or 20" wheels for short therm use. I expected to get a slip light while using it but I don't remember getting it. It's been a while.

i'm glad we don't have run flat tires --- New York potholes are the size of a regular office desk... the biggest pothole i've seen was a good 8 inches deep and about 3 feet wide on a major highway -- picture going 60mph and hitting that

They didn't feel stiff to you??? Those 050A RFT's felt like I was driving on Bricks... The sidewalls are Kevlar reinforced to support the vehicle section weight if flat. Certainly not a long term thing, and to me... not worth the ride

Can a tire that had liquid sealant in it still be patched?

Does the TPMS still work fine with goop in the tire?

Not at all actually, maybe cuz the test drive course was along central tokyo where roads are best.
