ABSTRACT:
A no-flat tire insert for use in vehicle tires. The tire insert includes a plurality of balloons all connected to a distribution manifold in a valve system. The distribution manifold inflates the plurality of balloons simultaneously during charging. The manifold valve isolates all of the balloons from the valve stem after charging of the insert. Puncture of a small number of balloons will not cause the tire to go flat. The no-flat tire insert can be adapted to any existing tire/wheel without any modification.
