Bob,

Runflat tyres do not have thick rubber tubes, but thick sidewalls. About 4" thick, this is what prevents to tyre to collapse when the air pressure is diminished. For pictures see my web page on 9.00-16 tyres. You'll notice when you're handling a runflat tyre, they are unbelievably heavy.

Cheers,
Hanno
