Message	By definition they must have extremely firm sidewalls, which is the last thing you want for good grip on hard accelleration, especially from a standing start. They are affectionately known as "Runcraps" by most C5 owners and very few modified C5's keep the runflats on for long. I'm keeping mine for now but I'll probably ditch them in disgust the 1st time I go to the dragstrip. Y2K C5 M6 Stage XII 1992 TTZ (sold) Stage III 1990 TTZ (sold)
