Le marche di Repair kits and compressors
This section includes inflate-and-repair kits, portable compressors, sealant refills, and tire pluggers for cars. To choose the right kit, you need to know if the tire has a built-in TPMS sensor, what the rim size is, and whether you are looking for a manual or automatic solution.
How to choose the right tire repair kit for your car
Inflate-and-repair kits: manual, automatic, or SENSOR version
Inflate-and-repair kits inject a liquid sealant into the tire and reinflate it in a few minutes without having to remove the wheel. There are manual versions, where the canister and compressor are connected separately, and integrated automatic versions, where the process is almost completely autonomous. If your car is equipped with TPMS sensors (tire pressure monitoring), it is essential to choose a kit compatible with the sensors, such as the Fix&Go Sensor versions, so as not to damage them during the repair.
Sealant refills: when and how to replace them
Inflate-and-repair kits include a sealant canister that is exhausted after a single use, or expires after a certain number of years even if unused. Sealant refills allow you to restore the kit without buying a new one. Check the compatibility of the refill with the kit model you own: there are versions dedicated to kits with an integrated compressor (e.g., AIR/AIR2) and versions for kits with a TPMS sensor.
12V portable compressors: pressure, flow rate, and power supply
A portable compressor is useful not only in the event of a puncture, but also to maintain the correct pressure periodically. The parameters to consider are the maximum deliverable pressure (bar or PSI), the inflation speed, and the type of power supply. The most common models connect to the 12V cigarette lighter socket; some NOCO models are instead battery-powered and rechargeable, with greater autonomy and portability. Lampa and Michelin offer classic 12V compressors suitable for ordinary road use.
Hubcaps: size and compatibility
Hubcaps are mounted on steel rims and are chosen based on the rim diameter in inches (13'', 14'', 15'', 16'' are the most common sizes). It is also important to check the width of the rim for a proper fit. Brands like CORA, WRC, and MOMO offer hubcaps in different finishes, from classic designs to two-tone or carbon-effect ones.
Alloy wheel repair kits and related accessories
For cosmetic damage to alloy wheels (scratches, chips), there are specific repair kits with fillers, paints, and abrasives. Lampa offers tubeless kits for tubeless tires. The range is completed by wheel bags and accessories for the transport and storage of the spare wheel.
