Far enough to get off the road and no further. A tire with no air destroys itself within a few hundred yards, and once the sidewall has been chewed the repair conversation is over. If the wheel itself starts taking the load, you may be buying a wheel too.
Treat it as a trip to the shop, not a way of life. Temporary spares are narrow, speed-limited and often underinflated from sitting for years, so check the pressure before you set off. They upset stability control and, on all-wheel drive, the drivetrain. Get the real tire sorted the same week.
Then look at the rim. Corrosion where the bead seats, a cracked wheel, or a perished valve stem all leak air with nothing to find in the tread. A shop can dunk the wheel and watch for bubbles, which settles it in a minute. Sensors have batteries that die too, so a warning light is not proof of a leak.
