Hi all,
Any RFT recommendation? Currently using Dunlop Sportmaxx 19' (235/35ZR19). I found that the wear and tear for this tyre is too short. I cannot be replacing the tyre so often.
Also would like to know, is there any drawbacks if i used non-RFT.
Thanks,
Try check for Michelin PS4S if it has RFT version in that size. If has then get that one coz it's arguably the best tire now on the market and it has tread wear rating of 300 so it would last longer than the Sportmaxx which has TW of only 240. Then there's Goodyear F1A2/3 which has the same 300 TW rating.Any RFT recommendation? Currently using Dunlop Sportmaxx 19' (235/35ZR19). I found that the wear and tear for this tyre is too short.

Other choices can be Continental CSC6 or Pirelli P Zero PZ4, but TW ratings of both are slightly lower at 280.
RFT is to allow you to still drive up to maybe 80kph even without any air pressure in the tire. So the drawback of not using RFT is only you cannot do that if you have a flat tire or significant loss of air pressure. You may feel the normal tires to be less responsive handling coz the sidewall is not as stiff as RFT tires but then more comfortable. So up to you, do you think the risk of having a flat is high enough for you so that you still need RFT, or just downgrade to normal tires. If I were you I'd just downgrade to normal tires coz very rare to get flat tire.
Btw for what car is this, Merc AMG CLA/A45?
