DRIVE
March 8, 2006
A tire wheel assembly having, attached to a tire/rim cavity, a run flat core member formed such that a high rigidity ring-shaped shell is supported at a rim with elastic rings, which are composed of a thermoplastic elastomer composition comprising a rubber composition (B) dispersed in a thermoplastic resin (A) or a hydrogen bondable thermoplastic elastomer comprising an elastomer polymer having a carbonitrile group-containing group and a heterocyclic amine-containing group at the side chain thereof and/or a composition of the thermoplastic elastomer, giving a tire wheel assembly of a run flat tire, in particular a tire wheel assembly capable of recycling the elastic rings for forming the core member.
