Sure that would be the best, and i dont see any reason why not, but its Thailand.

Im guessing it would be like this.

1000 baht - Tourist visa (2months)
1900 baht - Tourist visa extension (1month)
1000 baht - Visa run 1 - Visa on arrival (1month)
1000 baht - Visa run 2 - Visa on arrival (1month)
1000 baht - Visa run 3 - Visa on arrival (1month)

And then it starts over with tourist visa application again?

But i dont see how thats gonna work? Havent they started to enforce that rule about that you have to stay out of the country for as long as you been inside? - This would leave you with another 90 days to wait for a new visa application wouldnt it?
