Run flats or not?

[andysteele]

I've got a cooper s, first gen, convertible... And its due some new tyres. Currently its got a mixed bag of Dunlop and Hancook run flats.

Obviously there's is no spare (battery under boot floor), just like my other motors (Ford SMax that eats tyres in pot holes, the AA love us, and a Caterham with a can of tyre weld that I'd probably not use in the case of a puncture!).

So is not worth sticking with run flats on the Mini or not?

I'm 2 years into ownership, doing 5k miles a year. Don't think i'll experience another change in tyres. Might stick with run flats and keep pointyness....
