Here’s an article I saw this morning going through my phone.I respect your choice but no way around the fact that a run flat will have a stiffer ride. The sidewalls need to be stiff enough to support the weight of the car with no air In the tire. I say that for the rest of the public. personally I think the MME has a stuff enough ride and would not do anything to make it worse.
I will also say I have driven the drive guard it's a decent tire. Probably the most comfortable run flat in the market. but compared to a touring tire built for comfort it's harsh.
PS I was using AAA as an example.
Companies like Vredestein with its Quatrac Pro EV model are now offering tires made specifically for electric cars.
Michelin also has a number of "EV-ready" tire models in its roster, like the Pilot Sport EV Summer tire, reflecting the different needs of customers with electric vehicles.
According to the fresh J.D. Power 2024 U.S. Original Equipment Tire Customer Satisfaction Study, EV owners are largely surprised by the faster wearing of their tires. As one dealer puts it, EV tires are "the new oil change," referring to the regular service tax that ICE vehicle owners are intimately familiar with.
