Just changed my 2011 BMW 328xi tires from run flats to regular extreme performance ti

Love it. The ride is so much smoother and way less harsh. On top of that head tires grip way better and it was a oil over half the price of a set of runflats. If you don't drive over fought terrain of any areas where your prone to get tire damage, runflats aren't worth it. Great decision.

damn auto-correct

are you running a spare now?

I switched from run flats and never looked back. I have AAA platinum and a fix a flat kit in the trunk. Second set of wheels / tires at home as back up just in case.

Congrats on taking the plunge!

Extreme performance tires? Half the price of run flats? What tires did you get?
