Run flat tyres are built with reinforced sidewalls.
Normally a car is supported by the air in its tyres and once you have a puncture, they collapse.
Even after a puncture, run-flat tyres have tough rubber inserts that temporarily support the weight of your vehicle.

The best way to ensure a longer lifespan from your tyres is to keep the correct air pressure in them (no matter what type they are).
