Hi Guys,

How do these 2nd generation run flats compare to the older ones? We're looking to move to a new MCS (currently have a 2003 MCS), but the Pirelli run flats our 03 came with were brutal. We moved to Yokohamas and now Falkens and both significantly improved handling and comfort.

Living in the snow belt of the Ottawa Valley, all seasons are not a viable option.

As the Pirellis are the only run flats I've ever used, I don't have anything to compare them to. So should I try again?
