[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 461544, member: 3592"] Yes they're RFT. Actually, the correct generic term is SST - Self-Supporting Tire. Michelin has 2 versions of the Pilot Sport: PS2 and PS2 ZP, and as I mentioned, ZP stands for Zero Pressure. I'll add to my post: [I]1. 225/40/ZR18 88Y - Michelin PS2 ZP, RM1,100 2. 255/35/ZR18 88Y - Michelin PS2 ZP, RM1,400 Made in France, April 2010[/I] Tire manufacturers use various names for their SSTs. From Tirerack.com: Bridgestone RFT (Run Flat Tire), Dunlop DSST (Dunlop Self-Supporting Technology) and ROF (Run On Flat), Firestone RFT (Run Flat Tire), Goodyear EMT (Extended Mobility Technology) and ROF (Run On Flat), Kumho XRP, [B]Michelin ZP (Zero Pressure)[/B], Pirelli RFT (Run Flat Technology) and Yokohama ZPS (Zero Pressure System). 3rd gen because this is the 3rd gen of SSTs, discounting the now defunct Michelin PAX system. Like you, I don't like the thought of having a flat without a spare in the boot, and from my own experience, they're safer in a total air loss situation while rolling on a highway. [/QUOTE]
