Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ ZP or no ZP?

Gijutsusha · 06-21-2019, 09:06 PM

I currently have Michelin PSS (non-RF) and will need to change out soon. I've been happy with the MPSS, but I feel like I've been lucky running non-runflats without incident (knock on wood). I'm looking to move into an all-season tire (spending more time up north) and notice Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ comes in both ZP (run flat) and non-run flat. Wondering if anyone has comparative experience with both.

I have non runflats and I like the ride quality way better than the runflats tires. If you like a comfortable ride go for the non runflats.

In the end it all depends on what for you is the most important consideration. For me it is the security of the run flats because my 340 is a family hauler and I am frequently on the road with kids on soccer trips in rural parts of various states. For others that is less important. Based on my needs I am satisfied with my Conti run flats.
