Run flats

[JTB]

The price of Max Performance RUN Flats used to be stupid. Now they are much more reasonably priced.

Have any considered going with a RUN FLAT?

Has any one put any on their Stang?

If so, are you happy with them?

If so, are you happy with them?No to all. I've been driving for 32 years and only had one flat. Not worth it IMO.

We had run flats on our Mini.

What a difference when we changed them.

I wouldn't put run flats on anything again, they are very hard and you really feel everything.

Unless that's what you like?

I haven't had a flat in a very long time either. I think the last time was when a one inch by twelve inch piece of square aluminum tubing went through my tread and out the sidewall of my tire. I don't think a run flat would have stopped that. :grin:

I did worry about it making both trips to Orfstock 7 hours away.

Not sure what I would even do if we got aflat.

We have a car club that helps w/ flats and such, but where would they find a 305/35R18 tire if one of my rear tires goes flat? :surprised:

I have thought about putting in a spare since I don't track the car now.

I have 4 spare rims. I have heard they are too wide to fit in the space, but... I have thought about having one of them narrowed perhaps an inch or so to fit and just put a thinner tire on it.

That way it would fit in the tire well and it would work in a pinch on either the front or rear if I find the right height tire. It would have to be closest to the rear tire height I presume w/ the locker in the diff.

ATI did a thread on this on a different forum long ago. Maybe he can re-post it here for the newbies. :idea:

I think run flats are only sold as a wheel and tire combo. I dont think you can just buy a run flat and put it on you're car.
Just saying
