Congrats MB99 and welcome to the forum.
Tires are dependent on availability and what kind of deal/negotiation's the Tire mfg's are giving at the time. Dunlops, Bridgestone and Michelins either is not a bad tire. You may end up like many, going to a conventional tire on the first replacement set, I would not sweat it.

Thank you very much for the replies! I agree with you fodalo, once replacement is due, I'll more than likely make the switch.

Hey all, been trying to wade through all these threads but not finding what I need. Plus a lot of the links on here don't work anymore. Can anyone recommend a few options to replace my 2021 vert tires? Being I am in Arizona I doubt I need an all season. Just something that rides well (doesn't have to be RFT's but open to it) and lasts longer than 15k miles like my stock tires. Dealer said I need new ones but they can't price out non RFT's for legal reasons. Not that I really want RFT's or buy from the dealer. Also, any tire dealers in AZ that are solid outfit. I have bought from Big O and Discount Tire with other luxury cars but don't always prefer them because they don't seem to treat my car as carefully as I think they should. Scratched my wheels in the past when dismounting/mounting.

Rim care?
Yes you need to be very matter of factly and walk them around and say see, no scratches no blems on these wheels, we agree? When they are done, walk around 1 more time with the same manager./person. They will put there best guy on the change for you.

Default Michelin PS 4S

I just switched from pilot sport run flat to PS 4S at stock sizes. The car is significantly improved in every way! I would def recommend.

how many miles did your run flats have on them before you replaced?
