How long can a run-flat tire last after a puncture?
1 Answers
Run-flat tires can continue to be driven for 50 to 250 kilometers at a speed of 80 km/h even when the tire pressure is completely lost. Below is more information about run-flat tires: 1. Run-flat tires: Abbreviated as RSC in English. The inflated tire sidewall is the main part that supports the vehicle's weight, especially for tires with a larger aspect ratio (the ratio of tire height to width), where the sidewall is very "thick." 2. Sidewall support: For vehicles equipped with run-flat tires, minor air leaks may go unnoticed by the driver. Therefore, RSC also includes a TPI electronic warning system installed on the wheel rim, which alerts the driver immediately once the tire pressure begins to drop.
