  1. My model of MX-5 is: __NC1
  2. I’m based near: __the Mersey Riviera
  3. I’m looking for technical help or recommendations on: __tyres

After running my NC1 on Kumho PS71’s for about 3 yrs now and liking it, I just learned this morning, whilst browsing prices for these tyres to fit my Audi, that the PS71’s are a RUN FLAT tyre !!!
SHOCK - HORROR - SURPRISE.
I was of the “internet opinion” that run flats and “sports cars” didn’t exist in the same sentence.
Life is a learning curve hahaha

They offer a runflat variants of it, yes. But to be clear - not every version of the PS71 is a runflat tyre! This includes the sizes and versions commonly fitted to the NC and ND.

‘RFT’ will usually be mentioned in the description. Or Kumho also use the term ‘XRP’.

Cheers,
Steve

Thanks Steve, I was unaware of that variance but I’ll check my NC when I pop out later.
