I decided that the run-flat tire was still my choice overall after reading user comments, research, and my driving habits.
So I just ordered the following tires.
Brand: MICHELIN PRIMACY MXM4 ZP 90 BSW
Part #: 32346
Size: 225/45-17
Speed Rating: V
Type: GRAND TOURING ALL-SEASON
UTQG: 500AA
The best part.... got them for $89.00 each at onlinetires DOT com
Too bad spring is still 6 weeks or more away.
Good deal?
