Must see. Very sad but funny.

ohhh....thought it might have been a vid of someone changing a split rim without a cage...

That is sick!

The first one was funny. The next two, borderline.

I lost a buddy that way. It was on the 101 in San Mateo.

I once drove several miles on a flat left rear tire in the left berm in rush hour traffic on the Bayshore freeway until I could get across to the right side. For a while, I thought I'd bought the farm. Scary!

Goodyear will probably figure out that making fun of tire-related deaths can be dangerous.
Anyway, I thought run-flats were for expensive cars, not the econoboxes in these ads.

I read somewhere that once you run a runflat tire flat, that you had to replace it with a new tire. Not sure on the facts though.

Those were disturbing - esp the last one.

All tires are run flats. You just have to slow down a little. My spouse and offspring have been instructed to drive the car to a service station and have them change the tire. I once drove a car nearly 20 miles on a flat tire.
