    Typically armored cars will have a run-flat insert on the rim allowing the car to get out of the situation. Not to be confused with run-flat tires.
    Personally, I don't see the point of armored (ultra)high-end luxury cars. I figure if you are a target, even if the car is armored,why would you want attract the attention in the first place?

    if you are a high target, roll around in something a little less conspicuous

    There are different types of tyres - run flat, or autopumped.
    You 100% right - if You are target - DON'T USE SUCH CAR
    But when You are president or so - YOU HAVE TO.
    If You are just businessman - better drive GOLF 2. IMHO.

    I wish it had the interior so they could show that it is still in perfect condition at the end of the video. Maybe they could put a glass of wine on the seat before the explosion and show that it didn't even spill afterwards, because when I buy a car I put it through the same test as I would a mattress.

    That is why my dad doesn't care to drive a Bentley, RR, or any "supercar," b/c there is no need for that attention. He too is a business man, and doesn't like the spot light on him.
