Does anyone make Runflats anymore in 17" sizes for our cars?

I know the original Bridgestone Runflat tires from the SNAT series cars are long out of production and recently, I saw that Goodyear GSC Runflat tires are no longer available :ohnoes


What are my options here???? ;shrug

1. Scour tire dealers in hopes of finding a set of the Goodyear 285/40/ZR17 EMT Runflat tires.
2. Put regular 275/40/ZR17 tires on the car and carry a patch kit.
3. Carry a can of fix-a-flat.
4. Find an original set of Bridgestones, yeah... LOL :boogie

Don't get the Fix a flat!!!

If anything buy the Z06 kit that is liquid latex and an air pump.

IF YOU REALLY NEED A SET! I HAVE SOME!
 
GOODYEAR EMT's, with about 6000 miles.
My BRIDGESTONES have big dryrot cracks.


I wonder if I would be better off to take my wheels off and store them (with the current tires) and upgrade to the bigger 18" RW Magnesium wheels like you have on your 1996 :cool


With the 18" RW's, I would have the "current" tire selections ;help
 
Making room for brakes???;LOL

Did you ever get a price on the RW wheels? I asked once but they didn't get back to me with the price... then I forgot all about them.
