Why I'm Changing My Thoughts on Run-Flat Tires

I'm changing my thoughts on run-flat tires. I used to dislike run-flat tires. However, this year, I changed my outlook on them. For a something my wife may drive, it could serve as a benefit. Watch the video to find out more! #runflattires

I feel this at about my kids’ cars, too. It’s peace of mind while they’re away at college, for me, at least. Good take on this topic!

On point. If a car is designed to be outfitted for RFTs, best stick to RFTs - because if you are ever in that situation, you'll be safe compared to shredding a flat tyre and damaging your wheels which will cost you additional (possibly way more money) expense.

You should post some vids racing the Range Rover! Would be interesting to see how it compares to other cars

great video sir, only downer for me that alloys are at risk of cracking due to hard walls of tyre !, think this is only on older cars though, our roads in england are shocking

Love the channel, and thanks for the info !

RunFlats are stiffer, so to have the same level of comfort just go for smaller rims. 18 RFT will be roughly equivalent of 20 non-RFT. RFT will improve cornering properties compensating for the need of larder rims, and smaller rims will improve aerodynamics on high-speed (>170 km/h). Large rims with non-RFT are for show off, not for driving, I keep small rims that still fit my brake disks and calipers.

Ive gotten run flats on both my summer sets and winter set of wheels just cause of my new born baby.

Thanks for your analysis ... I have a BMW X5 and have come to the same conclusion.

I have a crazy idea. If want to be safe for your family and not get a flat tire don’t put low profile tires on your car.

I agree with you in regards of run flat safety. After I changed my X5 f15 2018 to non run flat, the comfort & price outweigh the safety issue. keep in mind tha I'm the primary driver of the car & I don't travel alot. cheers

I switched out my runflats on my x3 m40i - its like a completely different car - I have tow coverage if I have a flat - period

[eduardlast]

I just had a blowout on the freeway on rfts got off and drove the local streets till my destination and changed my tire without any towing and i mean a complete blowout a gold ball sized chunk gone from my tire

[orresearch]

runflat on 20 or 21 inch wheels for the m40i would be brutal for bay area freeways, so many potholes, and bumpy / jittery as a daily driver ; 19 inch will be be a better choice for the vehicle - it seems to make quite a difference

Which tires is better Michelle or continental....for bmw x5
