Run flat rear tires on a trike??

[Dante221]

Hello All
Had a flat yesterday on my Camry & it got me wondering if anyone makes a
run flat tire for our trike rears? :Shrug:
Thanks for your input!
Ride Safe!

I don't know about run flat tires. But they make a product called ride-on that supposedly seals your tire and also balance it. Have not used it but maybe some one else will chime in.

I have used Ride On for the last couple of years. It balances the tires perfectly. Luckily, I have not had to test the flat fix capability.

When hitting those long lonely stretch in the west like Utah, NM & AZ it gives you a little more piece of mind.

I would think real runflats would give a pretty stiff ride due to the stiff sidewall design that allows them to run deflated.

My Corvette came with them and when I changed them out to non runflats I was amazed at how much better the car felt,

Run flat tires usually have low profile very stiff sidewalls so they can support the car with no air pressure. They also have tire pressure monitors so you know when you have a flat. I'd think that if they have any in P206/65R-15 (I couldn't find any) you wouldn't like the harsher ride. Lots of people are running psi in the low 20's now for a softer ride.
