For a flat tire in one of the rear dual sets, it is possible to drive short distances very slowly to get off busy roads to a safe location for tire repair.
We once drove around 5 miles on the road shoulder with one rear tire flat to get to a place where the tire could be repaired. We drove very slowly and our Class C is only a 24 footer, with a loaded weight less than 12,000 lbs.. The Load Range E good tire in the dual set that we drove on in the rear went on to give many years of service, so it was not damaged by the few miles of serious over-loading.
