I'm looking for new runflats tor replace my OEM GYs. Based on what I've read I'm leaning towards the Michelin Pilot Sport a/s. However, I have heard that the Michelin pilot sports don't have quite as wide a profile as the GYs and don't look as good. Anyone have photos that would show the difference in appearance (ie tires on the car)? Thanks!

To get a general idea of what the tread pattern looks like, go to the Tire Rack site and just bring up each type of runflat. I am using the Firestone Firehawk runflats on mine and while they do not have as wide a profile as the OEM Goodyears, the tread pattern is much better and the ride, handling and noise level is definitely better.
