Anyone anyone on this forum convinced their dealer to do this?
I did. Cost me something very small. The tyre swap was outsourced to his tyre supplier-partner but I did the deal with the dealer.
Obviously RFT's are more expensive than non RFT's so my argument was that he was getting more expensive tyres then he was giving me.
I brought it up after we agreed figure for the change of car.
I had the car for 2-3 days on the RFT's before the mobile tyre service came out and swapped.
Maybe these two links will help:
Link 1
Link 2
PS - And I didn't have a puncture in the 12 months I had it. Mind u only 4200 miles though.

Good to know it is possible to convince a dealer to do this.
Looks like most other people waited a year (or more) before changing them out... you're the first I have seen to do it off the bat.
Having had the great displeasure of run-flats for over a year now... I don't think I would like to have to put up with them again on my next car for too long...
Cheers!
