Can run flat tires be replaced with conventional tire?

Cars that use run-flat tires don't have a spare tire. But there's no other reason you can't switch to regular tires. Best thing to do is learn how to plug a nail hole and carry a can of fix-a-flat or a small compressed air cylinder that you can use to re-inflate the tire should you encounter a flat. Or if you have CAA or AAA you can call and have them fix it.
