Bit the bullet, ditched the RFTs, and love the result. Ended up going with the Michelin Primacy MXM4 based on Tirerack reviews and other factors. Wow what a difference. Yes, the ride is a bit more floaty, but I'm willing to accept that versus bracing for every bump in the road. And with winter on the way, I was not looking forward to an even more jarring ride with the RFTs (those stiff sidewalls get even stiffer in the cold). I understand the virtues many see in runflats, I'm just not willing to live with a crappy ride day in day out for the outside chance of having a blowout someday. In my experience, slow leaks are much more common than outright blowouts (never had one). YMMV.
