Does anyone know if there are run flat tires made for this car?
Please don't be concerned that you have made a mistake. Just wait until you start driving it...you'll be happy you did.

At first, my main concern was also the NO run flats nor a spare. But my husband convinced me not to worry. I do drive her carefully and try to avoid pot holes, etc., as I am a tad paranoid about that issue and about the "no spare tire" thing. However, I cannot remember the last time I had a flat tire. I've decided to make a conscience effort not to worry as it takes the fun out of driving my Crossfire.

Just enjoy your new car. Treat her nice, drive it sensibly. Be kind to her tires LOL. She'll respond in kind. That's my outlook on it anyway. Just drive and have fun. Realizing you are going to own a most unique car, that'll take your worries about no run flats nor a spare tire away.

If they ever do come out with getting run flats that fit the Crossfire, I will probably invest in them. Will probably cost a rocker arm and a leg...but alas, ya can't take it with you.

No worries! Just enjoy!
