Runflat Sidewall Question
Is it just me or do the sidewalls on pirelli eufori@s look huge (tall) compared to their measure? Is this just because they're runflats? What can I do to not make my tires (w R90s) look huge?

Well, I can tell you they don't get much smaller when they are flat
I think they look about right - maybe it's the wheel throwing you off?

I just want something that "looks" lower profile than that!

I think you need some 18" JCW wheels with 35 series tires. I'll take the R90s off your hands.

Either leave the "tire shine" stuff off, or paint your wheel arches.
