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.

I had the MXM4s on a previous vehicle, and I think you made a good choice. They also lasted a long time.
