Run flat tires

We have a single axle Wolf Pup. I have read about these used on cars. Since I do not the second axle in case of a massive blow out I do not have a back up wheel to safely stop. I have researched tire pressure monitor and if a slow leak then they will work. I just want to be able to get to a safe place to change the tire. Any thoughts or experience with this type of tire?

Were common on all sports cars. No spare! Not used much anymore.

Pretty universally hated. Cannot be patched. Very expensive if available. $500+

Carry a good spare and pay attention.

Put premium tires on the tt. We have Goodyear, American made.

Can't say I have ever seen a run flat tire in a ST type tire or size you may have....but that doesn't mean they don't make such.

If you get the right TPMS they will tell you of fast leaks too. My TST 507 will trigger the alarm as close to instantly if I screw it off the stem.
