[quote=Anonymous]Pros: When I hit a pothole on the beltway at 9 pm on a Saturday, in the rain and alone, my car could limp home. Cons: Most tire shops don’t stock the tires I use, and tire rack isn’t open on Sundays, so it was Tuesday before I had my car back. So in OP’s hypothetical, i would limp on my run flat until the next exit with a service station (if you’re on an interstate there will likely be a service station with a mechanic close to a Days Inn within 50 miles), unless the car was undriveable, in which case I would call AAA. Then I would place my tire rack order to that mechanic, and make a reservation at the Days Inn. If the run flats make you uncomfortable (or make your dog car sick??), you can switch them to regular tires. Then you could conceivably have the aforementioned mechanic patch the tire instead of waiting for a tire rack delivery.[/quote]
