I also want the black wheels as kerb damage will be inevitable and they'll be easier to repair than the machined ones. Main advantage though is the improved ride quality and handling with the non-runflats and given that I only drive around 4k miles per year, mainly on Scottish country roads, I think/hope I'll notice the difference.

I'd be grateful for any opinions from anyone who's driven on both types of tyre.

Many thanks.
mine came with the black wheels. I like them, and it came with P Zero high performance run flats.

I've got a second set of non runflat regular tires on Vossen wheels and I don't like them. too soft, no grip and I lose speed and traction. traction control and abs is constantly kicking on the all wheel drive trying to grip the road.

I very much prefer the Pirelli, but it's just me. I know most prefer the Michelin Pilot Sport cup all season.
