I think the idea of having no spare and relying on Run Flat's is pretty new to most of us, hence the apprehension.
I've got them on my Cooper and I still can't make my mind up if I like the idea or not.
The idea of changing a flat tyre on the side of a motorway in the middle of the night while it's raining, doesn’t appeal in any way shape or form, but then the idea of not been able to put on a spare, drop the punctured tyre in for repair and then get on with your business is another bummer.
I just don't know?
As to only been able to only 20mph, have a look at the info again, it states you can travel up to 50mph, and that’s near enough the national limit in the USA (isn't it?)
If any one out there has had a puncture on a run flat and driven on it, could they add a little note here to say what it was like, did it make much difference to the handling. Thanks |
