I have Goodyear runflats. It's difficult to be objective, as I've not really driven with other tyres, but they seem OK (at least after 3,000 miles). Yes the ride is not faultless, but waht car is on badly repaired roads? It's certainly a lot better than my previous car with 17 inch low profile tyres, and they weren't runflats.

I would certainly not recommend Goodyear NCT5 wich are fitted on my 122 wheels: very hard and ver poor in traction on the wet below 7 ?C

I recently swapped out RFT Goodyear Eagle NCT 5 (harsh ride, dismal handling, especially in the wet) for non-RFT ContiSportContact2s (on 245/40/18 Style 135 M-Sport rims) - decision was made after a fair bit of research on this and other forums: general consensus was the Pilot Sport 2s are the best performance/handling tyre, but the Conti's ride significantly better while not giving up too much on the handling front to the Michelin's.

Is it in terms of comfort (noise?) or grip?
Is this worth the expense?
