It does surprise me how many people seem to be talking about replacing run-flats with non run flats... I don't want to keep going on about it, but run flats are superb in terms of safety and convenience. I'd hate to get rid of mine. The whole point is that you don't need a jack and spare - if you get a puncture, you can just keep driving... !

If you do get a blowout and die, we will be sad though. We would miss you (and the car, of course)!!

True, but the ride quality is aweful. EVERY bump can be felt... even if there was a bit of dirt on the road!

Quick note I was at home for lunch and the jack says 2 tons so maybe Costco only sells them in the stores? As far as
Runflat vs non Flat there shouldnt be a debate cause your screwed either way.
