Best Run Flats for F15/F16

Upgrading to staggered 20's. What are the best Run Flats to get.

Please no debate over non-run flats vs run flats

Performance Tires, not all-season.

Pzero's, Deuler H/P's, or the Dunlop SP Sport Max's

Could you give some further details: summer performanc vs all season, ride vs handing, treadlife, etc.

I'd look at Tirerack.com reviews and surveys.

If all season, I lean towards Michelin Latitude Tour for quiet, good ride, and decent treadlife while still handling okay. Not sure if available in 20" though (mine are 19").

Summer Performance Tires. Car is in LA and Vegas. Treadlife, Ride I guess would go into the equation, though I know tread life is weak in general. Latitudes are out...

Why are you so high on the Pzero's compared to the other options? I usually buy used tires off of eBay with 70-80% tread for big savings, but for some reason, used Pzeros start at $200 each. I guess since they aren't OEM, there aren't as many out there as pull-offs. Though comepared to $4-500+ each on TireRack, still a deal.

There are really only 4 options for RF in 20" staggered sizes that I'm aware of:

Dunlop
Bridgestone
Pirelli
Continental
