FAQs

How long can I drive on an Ecomax RunFlat tire after a puncture?

Typically, you can drive up to 50 miles at speeds not exceeding 50 mph after a puncture. Always refer to the specific tire's markings or manufacturer's guidelines for exact limitations.

Do I need a spare tire if I have Ecomax RunFlat tires?

While run-flat tires offer mobility after a puncture, it is still recommended to carry a spare tire or have a plan for tire repair or replacement, especially for very long distances or in areas with limited service.

Can I use Ecomax RunFlat tires on any vehicle?

Run-flat tires require specific considerations for vehicle suspension and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS). It's best to confirm compatibility with your vehicle manufacturer or a professional tire installer.

How does the Ecomax tire improve fuel efficiency?

The tire is constructed with materials and a tread design that minimize rolling resistance. Less energy is lost as heat when the tire rolls, meaning the engine requires less power to maintain speed, thus saving fuel.

Are Ecomax RunFlat tires suitable for all seasons?

The Ecomax RunFlat tires are designed to offer good performance in both wet and dry conditions. For extreme winter conditions with heavy snow or ice, winter-specific tires are generally recommended.

What is the expected lifespan of an Ecomax tire?

The Ecomax tire is designed for enhanced durability and a longer lifespan due to its robust construction. Actual mileage will vary based on driving habits, road conditions, and proper maintenance.

Troubleshooting

Reduced fuel efficiency not as expected.

Ensure tires are inflated to the recommended pressure (check vehicle placard). Verify that the tires are the correct size and load rating for your vehicle. Road conditions and driving habits also significantly impact fuel economy.

Slightly firmer ride than previous tires.

This is a common characteristic of run-flat tires due to their reinforced sidewalls, designed to support the vehicle's weight without air pressure. Ensure proper tire pressure is maintained for optimal comfort.

Uneven tire wear.

Check wheel alignment and tire balance. Rotate tires regularly as per your vehicle's maintenance schedule. Ensure correct tire pressure is maintained.

Run-flat performance after puncture not as described.

Remember run-flat capability is limited to a specific distance and speed (consult tire sidewall or manufacturer). Ensure the tire was professionally mounted. If the puncture is too large or sidewall is damaged, the run-flat feature may not function.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the Infinity Ecomax RunFlat tires are mounted by a qualified tire professional. The run-flat technology requires specific equipment and expertise for proper installation and balancing to ensure optimal performance and safety. Always check that the tire size and load index match your vehicle's specifications.

Compatibility: These tires are designed to be compatible with a wide range of passenger vehicles, but always consult your vehicle's owner's manual or a tire specialist to confirm compatibility with your specific make and model. The run-flat feature is particularly beneficial for vehicles that may not have space for a spare tire.

Care: Regular tire pressure checks are essential for maintaining fuel efficiency and tire longevity. We recommend checking pressure monthly and before long trips. Inspect tires periodically for any signs of wear, damage, or embedded objects. Rotate your tires according to your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations to ensure even wear. Clean tires with mild soap and water; avoid using petroleum-based solvents which can degrade the rubber.
