Would you consider putting a non run flat tire to make the ride more comfortable?

I am.

Been looking at the SP Sport 9000 Dunlops.

Goodyear makes the exact same tire in non-run flat design and size, but rides smoother.

So does BFG, in non-run flats, and softer ride.

There is one Prowler in Phx area with Dunlops on, but tread pattern design looks crappy.

$4$ - BFG looks like the best deal out there!

Just my opinion.

I have the SP Sport 9000 on my bug, they look B$tch'n, I guess the would look goofy to a Arizona Person.

The Sp Sport 9000 come in a DSST deal, their version of a run flat. I just discovered that. Still would like the softest ride possible.

I have had two flats in my whole life.

The bike and the truck did not have a spare.

Yup, thats it! Just doesn't look good on a Prowler - maybe a Volvo or Audi. Buy what YOU like Gary, I'm sure it is a good performing tire. Arizona's opinions never count as much - only eight electoral votes.

Ed - what would it look like in Ohio?

Hi Don - great to know you are back on the board. Drive Dusty since you moved back?
We missed you saturday nite, but Debbie got her X-mas shopping in.

I had to change name since you left, eastern and northern people don't like suncats this time of year.

$1016 is the cost of all four, don't forget tax, mounting and balancing.

As we all know, it is not good to have two different types of tyres on any vehicle.
