Me. Great tires. Noise isn't bad at all, but going around a corner with a bump is interesting. It tends to "jump" a little. I lowered my air pressure to 26 psi cold and it runs MUCH better.

How far can you go in run flat mode and still be able to repair the tire? I have tried to find those specs but without luck. (GY standard is 50 miles and still be repairable plus being able to go up to 200 miles if needed but would need to replace the tire then.)

50 miles is about right, but most likely the tire will be trashed even with the GY.

Do you have any documentation from Kumho on how far they can go. Would assume that they gave you some paperwork when you purchased them. GY can do up to 200 miles but the tire is trashed & 50 miles and still be repaired. Just looking for something that comes close to the GYs.
