Non run flats

[Vet Guru]

Anyone use the non run flats and if so what's the best ones for sale?

Michelin PS2 on mine now, but they are not cheap! I have used Bridgestones (RE050) but the rear was not the right size so ended up changing. Good tyre though.

How do you find the turn-in on non-ruflats? I used to have a BMW Z4 with Bridgestone RE050 runflats as standard - dreadful grip, but very sharp turn-in. I switched to Goodyear GSD3 non-runflats which were massively better for grip, but had very soft turn-in due to the softer sidewalls. Given that the C6 already has fairly soft turn-in on RFTs, I'd be worried that it would be too soft with non-RFTs.

I don't find it too much of a problem, the ride is softer and the difference in turn in only becomes noticeable when presing on on the road.

No problems on the track either, in fact I prefer the non runflats for the grip and progressive breakaway.

Great tyre IMO. When I got mine they worked out very nearly as expensive as runflats - better ride and handling though. Grip seems excellent too.

I have Toyo T1-R's on my C5 Z06 and they are far better than the Goodyear originals - quieter, better ride as well as grip and feel. Much cheaper than PS2's. Not great in cold/wet but neither are the Goodyears.

Had to sort out some new tyres on the kids' car yesterday and noticed the guy had some Goodyear runflats among other fancy stuff on the rack. Got chatting about high performance tyres without mentioning Vette and his unprompted opinion was that Michelin and Continental are favourites.
