I was told there are run flats rated to 100 miles. Haven't looked.

If you don't have run flats, carry a good plug kit. E.g. Safety Seal. And of course something to inflate a tire.

My last car flat wasn't really pluggable - short sidewall tear. Yeah I hear of people installing several plugs, and If I had that instead of a spare, I would have tried. Doubt it would have worked though.
