Michelin PS2 Run Flats???

I never knew the ZP (zero pressure) series existed but took the plunge with them for new shoes on the Z4! The first ride really seemed to be tighter and less hard than with the OEMs. I'll let you know how they work out.

I didn't even know you had a Z4! A 6er and the 750i yes, but not a Z. Where are the photos?

I was looking at Tirerack's offerings a few weeks ago and noticed someone else making runflats to fit the 645/650 - sorry, but I can't remember the company.

It will be interesting to see how Michelin RFT's compare to the Bridgestones - especially in ride comfort.

Sounds promising. I'll have to check them for 6er sizes.

The skateboard is the GF's which she has had for a few years.

The increase in the ride comfort is immediatly noticeable!! I do not know if Michelin ZP's come in the 6er's size. My research showed that they were origionally made for OEM tires for the 3 series and then expanded to fit the Corvette. I never knew they were available for the Z4 until my shop recommended them.

Tirerack.com doesn't show the Michelin RFT's in the 645/650 Sport size, but it does have the Pirelli RFT's (the one I remember seeing) which are significantly more expensive than the OEM's...
