Run Flats?

[GBN]

My 2023 Audi A5 Cabriolet did not come with a spare nor run flats. Just a tire repair kit. Hi end fix-a-flat.  Has anyone recommendations for run flats?

Good to have you onboard.

Hello Gary,

Run flats?? Obviously their supreme benefit is to ensure the car remains as safe as it can be in the event of a tyre deflation. However, the trade off is a much harsher ride due to the sidewall reinforcement, and you have to live with this mile on mile, until you hopefully ( don’t) need them. 
Question is, do you really want run-flats for their inherent safety, and are you prepared to sacrifice the ride trade off? 
Or do you want run-flats, simply to avoid the inconvenience of attending to the tyre at the point of deflation? 
Some models still retain the space for a space-saver spare wheel - not sure about yours - and this can be purchased along with a jack and wheel brace - as they used to be! 
Perhaps that may better suit your needs -? 
Kind regards,

Gareth. 
Apologies for our tyre,  rather than your tire.

I just don't like the idea of getting stuck someplace without a spare or ability to get home. We have run flats on my wife's BMW X3 and the ride is fine but a very different car/suspension situation. I'll check with dealer about room for small spare. Thanks.  We are two peoples separated by a common language!

Thanks Gary,

If there is a spare wheel well (and you can easily check this) then it should be possible to buy a spare wheel ‘kit’ for it, which will include the ‘temporary’ spare wheel, the jack and the wheel brace - all at a price!
If you are cost conscious then you might well pick up these items at a vehicle breaker. 
No spare wheel well? Then I would think you will just have to accept the situation as it is, or make room in the trunk, which I guess is already restricted, being a convertible. 
Kind regards,

Gareth.

The A4 space saver kit should fit the A5 FYI.
