You could of driven home on the runflats, you cant go faster then 35 on them, there is no distance on how long you can drive on them, and im sure within 20 miles of where you were there was atleast one tire shop, I have an 04 vette and have the runflats also

pete I called the dealer and they told me 25 miles . . I tried to buy a junk tire to get home on . . . you gotta understand I was up on the grapevine in lebec. pop: 300. wasn't like I was in LA or some place and it was at about 6:30 pm on sat. I'm sure gonna look into the run flats 'cause the car never said anything except . . 'max speed 55' and 'reduced handeling' didn't say antyhing at all about getting off the road . . when the tire blew I was at about 80-90 mph . . the car didn't even get wierd at all . . heard the pop but didn't even know I had a flat until the dash lite up . . the vette is a great car for sure . . -bmb

edit: found this online: Typically, self-supporting tires maintain vehicle mobility for 50 miles at speeds up to 55 mph. (had already done about 10 miles when I pulled up to the tow yard . . had about 70 to go)

do you remember seeing a spare tire in yer car anywhere? vettes have no room for them . . the z06 comes with a patch kit and a pump that goes into a splark plug hole run flats don't have the performance that reg tires have . . . not that I drive fast enough to notice . . btw what did you pay for 2 tires . . if it was $800 you're up into run flat territory. a set of tires for the vette is around 1400-1500. can't rotate them either

Ahh, quit your bitchin' unless of course you're bragging.
In any case if you can't afford the maintenance on it, you can afford to own it.

FUCK AAA!

When you buy a membership in them, you are making a donation to a lobbyist organization that fights for the rights of... you guessed it... insurance companies. AAA was behind the "National 55" speed limit laws, is behind most checkpoint and traffic law bullshit.

If you really want a auto club that stands for motorists, try looking at driversshield.com. I would never buy an AAA membership if my life depended on it.

DS provides alot of stuff AAA dosent. Like trip interruption insurance.

I've seen this stuff in a can that says it can patch and inflate all in one. Probably won't work unless you only have a pinhole in your tire, but it might be worth the $10 to keep one in your car. Even if it had a 10% chance of working it would be worth a try
