Need some advise. The stock tires which are run flats.
Can i change to normal tires? Will it cause any issues with the tire pressure sensors?
Was recommended to change to Pilot Sport 4 and I know got no spare so will need some puncture kit (Raymin FlatFix) just in case for emergency.

Arent they 18in? Anyway, try your luck at the major tyre shops. A lot of ppl straight away change rims after getting the car. Very very new stock run flats available. I got mine for 750 each few months back.

Do you have model of Bridgestone so that i can ask around? Also apart from Bridgestone, how about other brands because i only hear of Pirelli or Bridgestone carrying run flats.

Yes, you can use normal tyres. it wont trigger the TPMS as long as they have the correct Tire pressure.
