Anbody running in a 07 or newer TSX running on RFTs? I read an ad in Wired magazine for Bridgestone tires that the Run Flats require vehicles with tire pressure guages/monitors as you can't feel the difference if you had a flat tire and it can be dangerous if you go over 50mph. The tires were only designed to allow you to get to a tire store.

I'm just curious as to how those tires are...

I have run flats on my Corvette, and I don't think I will replace them with run flats. The tires are heavy, they ride like $**t and don't perform all that well. Oh ya, they don't last as long either.

You have a spare, so, I would not buy them, but its your car and money.

run flat tires have very strong sidewalls. When your tire goes flat, you'll be riding on those sidewalls. It's only meant to get you to a tire store.

Unfortunately; I can't find any tires in a 215/50/17 configuration. I'm considering a 08 TSX myself.

I currently have a 06 TL and I have the Pirelli PZERO Nero RFTs on now and the ride is just fine.

Hopefully they will make 215/50/17 tires in runflats.

I'd buy them in a heartbeat.

They were OE on my BMW Z4 and count me as one who has no use for them (I replaced them with conventional tires and carried a donut spare and a jack). Aside from the rough ride, I found a big drawback is the extremely limted choice of tires. There are only one or two runflats available in any given size (and big money too).
