GS460 only come with run flats?
That's what I was told. Is this correct? I came real close on purchasing a BMW 535 until I saw a thread that run flats are extremely loud, especially after 10k miles. Some even stated that it's almost unbearable. All BMW's come with run flats these days, so I walked. I am now finding out that the GS460 only comes with them as well. Are you guys experiencing a lot of road noise from them?
Thanks in advance for your input.

Run flat is an option on the GS460, but I am sure its a regional option thing. Try to look outside your region or ask the dealer to change out the runfalt as a pre-condition for buying the car.

yea request them to change it out as courtesy or incentive to buy the car, make sure to ask for the spare as well
I have no problem with my runflats, people are too into the perfectly quiet car, I need road noise, i need engine roar, exhaust tone
otherwise, what's the point of driving?

Now I'm curious. I just bought a used '07 gS350, all stock, with Lexus chrome rims and 18" Yokohama tires. I assumed these were not run flats, as I thought Dunlop made the run flats. In addition, I don't see any run flat designation of any kind on the sidewall. Are these indeed non-run flats? (I still hear the tire road noise while driving).
