Determine whether or not self-inflating tires are available for your vehicle. If you drive a military vehicle or a large commercial truck, chances are you can have a self-inflating tire system installed. If a central self-inflating tire system is already installed in your vehicle, there should be controls and monitors on your dashboard that allow you to adjust tire pressure while driving.

Select tires made by the same manufacturer as your central self-inflating tire system or your vehicle to ensure compatibility and function. Never interchange the style or brand of tires without first consulting the manufacturer of your vehicle's self-inflating tire system.

Choose the right tire for your needs.

Purchase five self-inflating tires in case of a major blow-out. Self-inflating tire systems do not support standard spares, so you must keep an extra full-sized tire in your car at all times. Many tire manufacturers that offer tires compatible with self-inflating tire systems also offer full-sized spare tire mounts for your vehicle as well as repair kits, changing kits and wheel balancers.
