The principle of run-flat tires for cars: By thickening the tire sidewall, it can still bear the weight of the car after a puncture, allowing the car to continue driving for a certain distance. More information about run-flat tires is as follows: 1. The scientific name of run-flat tires is "puncture-resistant tires", abbreviated as RSC in English. Run-flat tires cannot actually prevent explosions, but because their sidewalls are thicker, they can support the car to drive at speeds below 80km/h for about 100 kilometers after a puncture. 2. Due to the thicker construction of run-flat tires, their weight is also greater than that of ordinary tires. Cars equipped with run-flat tires may have slightly lower ride comfort compared to ordinary cars, and to some extent, they may increase the car's fuel consumption.
