RFT are repairable only if it is near the mid and not the sidewall. (that's what I read on some post)...

I have repair it once on my rear driver side, my friend just use the beef stick, not the mushroom cap as some post have mention. It worked out fine for 1 month now. The cost for me are zero due to friend fix.

im pretty sure run flats are not repairable unless you use a tire plug

You bought aftermarket RFT's? Why? Glad to hear it was fixed cheap!
