EXACTLY MR. TONKA
GO FLATS as opposed to RUN FLATS
(well thats what I hear the ordinary tires are called)

I feel like no one was able to decrypt the OP but that makes me skeptical of my alternate interpretation.
OP, if you are switching from run flats to standard tires, you should purchase a plug kit and keep it in the trunk. That or a can of Fix-a-flat is about all you can do outside of buying a wheel from a salvage yard, mounting a tire on and keeping it in your trunk.
And no, a screw will not do the trick. Maybe with a tiny puncture, in a pinch, with no other alternative. ....Get a plug kit to keep you on the road and then take the tire to get a proper patch applied to the inside.
