Abstract: A run flat system. The run flat system includes a run flat assembly and a continuous elastomeric cap member. The run flat assembly includes a plurality of arcuate shaped run flat segments which collectively form a ring, and the run flat assembly forms a noncompliant load bearing portion of the run flat system. The continuous elastomeric cap member covers a radially outer surface of the run flat assembly, and the continuous elastomeric cap member forms a compliant portion of the run flat system.

Abstract: A supplementary cargo carrier for a vehicle. The carrier includes a support-frame, a platform and support bars which can be pivoted relative to the platform. The support-frame can be removably attached to a trailer hitch. The carrier can have a variety of configurations depending on the intended application, the configurations being changeable by adjusting the support bars and by reversing the orientation of the platform relative to the support-frame.
