Was wondering the same thing. Having closely examined the sidewalls of the Zeros, I don't see any indication of that.

You know... I thought all p-zeros were run flats... I can say, if they weren't run flats I was extremely lucky. They performed just like they were given i had 0 psi in the tire and no rim damage. Perhaps the low profile is what helped?

On my XKR the Pirelli tires got noisy (at first I thought it was a bad wheel bearing) after maybe 15,000. miles or so. When I switched to the PSS tire the grip was better than the Pirelli tires (new) and when I sold it I had about 18,000. miles on them with no noise.
I plan to switch the ftype r over once the Pirelli tires get noisy.
Lawrence.
Okay, the XKR owner has Dunlop SP Sport Max all round, in the recommended sizes.

Not sure that's really much use...

Who is talking about run-flats? I thought the f type r didn't have a size in run-flats.

In the U.S., none of the '14-'15 F-Type models have come equipped with run-flats. That's why they give us a tire pump and can of "goop."
