"Run-Flat" Tire For ATVs

"Run-Flat" Tire For ATVs ATV'S ATV'S 22-3-42 You won't have to worry about getting stranded on your ATV with a flat if you switch to Goodyear's new "run-flat" tire. Goodyear says they're the first run-flat tires designed specifically for ATVs. They can be driven for 50 miles at 25 mph even after being punctured or cut. A stiff sidewall insert provides the structural stiffness to perform without any air. Since the tire doesn't collapse like a standard tire would, the wheel won't be damaged as you drive the ATV back home, notes the company. And repairs can be made in the same manner as a standard tire. No special tools are needed. "There will be a premium charged for the EMT technology; however, we think the security and convenience of never again being stranded by a flat tire will offset any price increase," says the company.
