If so, what are the pros and cons of run flats versus regular non run flats besides being able to drive on a flat tire for x amount of miles? Thanks everyone!
Went from runflat 225/45-18 to summer Michelin Pilot Sport 4S in 245/40-18. Makes runflats seem like old wooden wagon wheels. In San Diego weather you can run these awesome tires all year round. Amazing on dry and on wet roads. Get a Slime 8-minute kit at Walmart $45. Harbor Freight has scissor jack, breaker bar & 17mm socket. See attached photo.
