In X3 that I got the non-run flats come with a compact spare aka donut tire. However in the finest german tradition of overengineering everything, the storage space gets reconfigured to a point of raising the floor by a few inches, which I wasn’t willing to lose. Ultimately I would prefer to have regular tires and a spare, even if it’s mounted under a car, but that’s not an option here.
My question was rather whether tire sealer + inflator combo can prevent me from stranding in the middle of nowhere if I dont want to have run-flats. Have a nail in the tire? Seal, inflate and drive it in low speeds until I get it repaired.
Or is there a benefit I am not aware of , for example having much stronger sidewalls so I would be much more protected from potholes or whatnot?
I recommend a Hyundai Pallisade
