Gugs Mhlungu chats to Warren Tucker, resident motoring enthusiast, about the origin of run-flat tyres, designed mainly for European roads with shorter distances and smoother tar surfaces.

Their unique rim and tyre design that allows drivers to continue for a limited distance after a puncture, the cost implications, and why certain vehicles, like bakkies, are not suited for run-flats due to their off-road use.
