Freeway Lanes

My '05 Mini with 17" Pirelli Eurforia run flats really jumps around on the rain grooved concrete freeways found in L.A.

The smooth roads found outside the city are fine, but the local freeway driving me crazy and my significant other is starting to complain as well.

Is there a tire combination that handles these surfaces on the 17" rims?

What is the consensus of the freeway drivers?

Yokohama Parada Spec-2. Next time I'll get 215's instead of 205's.

I had Yokohama AVS ES-100's on my old Cooper. Trying to run through the [email protected] as quickly as possible, so that I can get them on my MCS. :D They make a world of difference.
