Are the Pirelli 15" tyres on the Pepper Pack Run-Flats the dealer says they are I disagree.

Isn't the reason for the squirty puncture repair kit because the tyres are not run flats.

Before I get flamed I did a search and couldn't find what I wanted.

You are correct, the standard 15" rims have normal tyres NOT runflats.

The runflat tyres have a mark on the tyre wall to indicate that they are runflats. If you've got the 2002 Handbook it describes what the mark looks like (I can't remember at the moment, and I can't remember if the 2001 Handbook used to).
