The kit consists of a zip-up nylon storage bag with a rubberized bottom which prevents it from moving about when driving. It contains a portable 12 volt DC air compressor, one bottle of tire puncture repairing sealant gel, universal compressor adapters, valve stem removal tool, and an instruction manual to guide you through the process of performing a roadside tire repair.

But you don't need this kit because you have RFT tires. Because even on one of the RFT tires you use, even if the tire pressure drops to 0 PSI, you can continue your journey for 150 - 200 km without rising above 80 km/h. This way, you can repair or replace the tire by going to the nearest tire shop.

If you switch to nonRFT tires in the future, then you need to buy Mobility Kit. But then there will be a problem. Your wheels are equipped with RDC air pressure control sensors. This gel will damage the RDC sensors if you use tire repair gel when the tire pressure drops to 0 PSI. Therefore, we recommend that you always choose a suitable RFT tire for summer or winter tires.

Have a nice day.
Thanks very much, really helpful and now I understand exactly what you mean.

Thanks again!
