I was persuaded to ditch the run flats yesterday
Been on the fence but hated ditching tires with plenty of meat left. Well, this got me off of the bubble. I don't know what I ran over, but sure felt it. I would have bet money it was the front tire but this is the rear. The low pressure sensor went on almost as soon as I hit whatever it was. Ordered four new shoes from Costco.

Agreed. I just had a lot of meat left the RFs.
Soon as I got in the parking lot of Costco I could feel a difference.
I have a donut spare that will not fit under the bonnet. Thinking about deflating to see if it will fit that way. I have a kit with an inflator should the need arise.
Don't plan on carrying usually, just on a trip.

Yikes, first time i have seen a spoon in the tire. Wow.
