A run-flat tire and method of manufacturing is disclosed with a pair of post-cure sidewall-stabilizing run-flat inserts. Each of the pair of post-cure sidewall-stabilizing run-flat inserts extends circumferentially about a rotational axis of a tire; includes a first terminating end, and a second terminating end, opposite the first terminating end; and is disposed on a radially inner surface of a sidewall of a tire such that the first terminating end terminates above the bead core and the second terminating end terminates along at least one of the sidewall and a respective adjacent shoulder.

The wheel includes a tire, a rim, two groups of supporting members. The tire is coupled to the rim. The groups of supporting members are oppositely positioned and received in the tire. Each group of supporting members are separately positioned from each other. The supporting members of each group are coupled to an inner surface of the tire by injection method. Central axes of the supporting members of each group are coincident or parallel. A central axis of each supporting member is coincident with or parallel to a central axis of a central axis of the tire.

A runflat tire includes a tire body, a carcass extending from a tread portion through sidewall portions of the tire body to bead cores in bead portions of the tire body, and sidewall-reinforcing rubber layers having cross-sectional crescent shapes and positioned on inner sides of the carcass along the sidewall portions, respectively. The tire body has height Ha in range of 817 mm where the height Ha is measured from a rim line of the tire body to inner edge of an innermost dimple/fin row of the tire body in radial direction of the tire body, the innermost row is formed in dimple/fin forming region including one or more dimple/fin rows having dimple/fin portions arrayed in circumferential direction of the tire body, and the dimple/fin forming region is formed on external surface of a sidewall portion on outer side of the rim line in the radial direction.
