I picked up my new 325 Monday. Tuesday morning, I had a nail in one of the tires. RFTs worked exactly as they are supposed to. I got the flat tire warning on my Idrive screen and I drove it to the dealer. My SA told me that as long as the nail was not in one of the sidewalls, they can plug it. They plugged it and it is performing well. I told him that I had heard you could not plug RFTs. He said that was true on the original generation of RFTs, but the newer ones repair very well as long as there is no problem with the sidewalls. Only time will tell I guess, but it beats the hell out spending $250 for a new tire!
