Is there a dealer anywhere that has a sensible plan for dealing with someone who doesn't want (won't have) run flat tires? Any leads appreciated.

Why not just buy the car and take them off? no???

I agree with you feelings on the RTF's. I hope they are optional on the 335, but I doubt it.

If you get them with the RFTs, you can always sell them to have some money to buy the non-RFs.

You have to be kidding me? RFT's are the greatest invention since sliced bread. Maybe not the smoothest ride but certainly the safest...people get killed all the time changing tires on the highway...in fact, check out this video clip that someone may have already posted on another forum: http://view.break.com/98605

I'll use the RFTs but plan to change to non-RFTs once the tread wears down. I have tow/repair coverage on my car insurance. It's dirt cheap so if I get a flat I'll just use the cell to call somebody to come fix it.
