I'm almost afraid to post this question as I expect to get a myriad of answers but I'm brave so--

I have decided to replace the GY EMT's on my 2010 GS with non runflats:

1) Leaning toward a Michelin Pilot Sport (summer tread).
2) Comparing against a GY Eagle F1 (summer tread).


Car has 7500 mi. Front tires 6/32 tread ; rear 4/32 tread
Car had recent 4 wheel alignment and aligned to touring mode.

3) Rumor is GY may give you kind of a warranty settlement and offer to install GY non run flat F1 tires on your car and confiscate the original tires if you go into a store and complain about the poor wear and excessive noise?

Regards,
Dave K.

I think you have actually have gotten decent tread life from your original tires, based on what I've seen, so I doubt they will work with you to replace them.

Also, I'm finding it more difficult to find installers that are willing to take the liability risk of installing non-run flats on a car that comes with them from the factory.

Having said all of that, the Michelins are pretty much unanimously preferred over the comparable Goodyear tire, almost all the time.

I run them on my 2008 Michelin Pilot Sport they are not real stable but quiet and I like them.

Don't go far from home ? Weekend drives to the corner store ? Go for it. Otherwise, stick with a run flat. I have the Michelin R/F's and love them.
