Can Run-Flat Tires Still Be Driven Without Air?
1 Answers
Run-flat tires can still be driven without air pressure. Below is an introduction to run-flat tires: 1. The differences between RSC tires and conventional tires include run-flat characteristics, reinforced sidewalls, additional valve strips, and high-heat-resistant synthetic rubber materials. Run-flat tires can still travel up to 250 kilometers even after a puncture. In reality, if there is significant damage (such as a large puncture from sharp objects) or poor road conditions, the driving range may be reduced to several tens of kilometers, typically around 100 kilometers. 2. The reason RSC run-flat tires do not collapse after losing air is mainly due to their thickened rubber sidewalls. Even without air pressure, the sidewalls can support the vehicle's weight without severe deformation, so a punctured tire does not significantly affect the vehicle's driving performance.
