Default Kumho ECSTA MX Run Flats ?

Need to replace my Firestone Firehawks Run Flats and saw Kumho ECSTA MX Run Flats for $786.00 on Tire Rack site. The Firestones are $1,130.00. This represents a savings of almost $350. I don't race or autocross, it's a daily driver and I have one year left on lease. I squeezed over 35,000 miles out of Firestones and want to know if anybody has experience with these or should I spend the extra bucks.

ive got the regular MXs and they are great. Im sure the runflats arent too bad, and for that savings i think it would be a no-brainer

I run the Kumho's that are not run flats, and the diff in ride and quiet is amazing, and we do recreational drags ans autocross. Great bang for the buck.
