Run Flat Tires

Run flat tires are new to me. Some new vehicles do not even have a cavity to store a compact tire.
What I have learned:
- you can drive 50 miles on a deflated run flat tire, but the tire is then destroyed $$$
- you can easily be more than 50 miles from a tire shop
- the tire shop can easily not have the tire you need and you are stuck $$$$
- fix-a-flat type products also destroy the tires $$$
- fix-a-flat type products can be expected to destroy the TPMS transponder $$
- a compressor and tire plug type repair kit is a good idea $$
- better yet, but extreme, is having a compact spare in the trunk $$$
- you may also need to purchase a jack kit that is vehicle compatible $$$
