With a "couple of flat tyres" I wouldn't taxi at all.
Once we lost a tyre during landing roll on A300 (4wheeler tandem) and left the rwy without any problems. But that's ist, rest was maintenance.

Taxi with deflated tires.
It will be described in the FCOM. It will generally be allowed to continue taxiing, if tires are not damaged, with restrictions on speed and nose wheel steering angle depending on the number of tires deflated.
