You still be able to get tyres with the correct speed rating that are non run flats.
Get a canister of tyre weld so you can limp home.0 -
remember reading that run-flat tyres give a harder ride than standard tyres so you ride may feel smoother if fitted with standard tyresProblem with having access to internet is that i get asked by many to solve their problems
Well at least i learn something on the way

Don't forget it's ilegal NOT to have a spare tire - the Z4 gets away with this because it has run flat tyres...
I know it's more expensive, I need to replace three on my car and I'm looking at £220 each!
anyone know of a cheap run flat tyre place? although this is the second set this year - because of punctures!!! (possibly cheap tyres!!)0 -

I'd check on that CUTEADDER, as I don't think it's a legal requirement to have a spare tire - but it is illegal to have one that's not road worthy?A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.0 -

Rubbish you have to have a spare tyre at all, and it does not have to be road legal either, just you wont be able to use it if you wanted to!! They don't check the spare at a MOT.0
