Welcome to NAM. I started with a Justa also. Loved it so I went for the JCW.

Thanks to everyone! Of course I enjoy the super fuel mileage; and also like the HK audio package and roof! The BMW type instruments, controls, and steptronic are just outstanding. My #1 item when I shopped was non RFTs. Of course these tires are skinny and don't look particularly aggressive; but they are Michelins that in a limited amount of time so far seem to satisfy my needs. Thanks again!

Welcome to NAM.

Base or not your car is quite the curve cutter. Would think you have some decent twisties up north by Cheaha.

Welcome. Yes the runflats can be heavy and ride very hard. Once you switch to non rft's its a big change. Congrats!
