It is definitely turning into a one of a kind highbred with the badging, the white with black and red is coming around

Thanks Calgary! I'm definitely enjoying the journey with this one.

Time to replace the front factory run flats after just 11k miles. That sucks.

I've been toying with the idea but keep convincing myself that run flats would be ideal for me since I do mostly highway driving. I'll come around eventually.

+1 on sealant kit + inflator. I've actually used the kit multiple times (on other people's cars).

I also kept the run flats on '18 Camaro. I've gotten so dependent on them that I find it hard to switch. One morning, I started my previous Camaro and was alerted that one of the rear tires had 9 lbs of air. I drove 25 miles to work on I95, took it to a local tire shop on my lunch break and had a patch installed. Can't beat that.

I'm pretty sure actually driving that car on proper tires for years beats this solution to a 0.1% case problem

Well, I certainly can't argue with that. Thanks arpad_m for putting things in the proper perspective.

Hey SShark, definitely not targeting you (or anyone else) today, no matter what it might look like
