Looking for new tires: Runflat

Hello, I’m looking for a new set of tires but not trying to break the bank. I would ideally like to run 305/30/20 rears & 275/30/20 fronts (or 285 just not sure if it’ll go well with it being lowered). They need to be run flats.
Options?

Yeah but I drive some long distances sometimes and can be a bit risky without a spare. Will do

I was happy with my original runflats. Not sure why you call them trash. Its just a summer semi trak tire. I got almost 30k out of mine. Now run an all season Cooper tire.

Don’t think Goodyear has those sizes in Runflats!

Not made in Texas. Or the US for that matter.

And if you run your stock wheels then those sizes you listed will be stretched too much! Your best bet is to use the stock tire sizes in runflats if you have stock OEM wheels.

They have some models made in the US. None that fit the Camaro.

Yes, just wanted to show that Cooper does still make tires in the US.
