Wondering if anyone has any experience with Bridgestone Potenza Run-Flats on their GT500?

Or anyone install run-flats, in general, on their GT500?

I found a clearance-price deal on a full set but I've read & heard pretty much negative feed-back on run-flats in general.... And zero feedback on the GT500s [w/ Run-Flats installed].

Since the S197 GT500 is a heavy car with a stiff suspension, I figured maybe I give it a shot on these tires.

What do you think?

Also instead of "RFT", run-flat [right?], what does "MO-Extended" mean?

My experience with run flats was on my GTR.

Great traction, very stiff ride and the trammeling was terrible. You needed both hands on the wheel at 10 and 2 at all times.
