Help Need Tires today!!

Okay, I knew I was going to need tires soon, but my light went on today on the way to work and the front passenger tire is shot. I was hoping to have more time to research run-flat replacement options but thats what I get for procrastinating....

Here is what I can get today. Any recommendations from you guys would be wonderful. And I'll buy you a drink at the next happy hour!

Autotire--BF Goodrich KDW for $672.00

Fisser--Hancook 104, $852--Never heard of this brand of tire and not sure I want to drive on the highway that far to go here.

NTB--Goodyear G4 Sport $532.78

Of course, I can always go to Autohaus and replace the run flats for $1400. Not my first choice

We have the KDWs and they are sweet. Its even easier to turn the steering wheel since the tires are lighter.

Cosco has a deal right now on 17" KDW's for around $460 installed. You need to order online and have shipped to the nearest location if not in stock.

I am on my second set of BF Goodrich KDW NT (I have over 96,000 miles) and I love them. Will get a third set when needed. Got them at Discount Tire/American Tire, good price, warranty and a lot more locations than Costco etc.
