I have MPSS's for the summer and Alpins for the winter. Both sets are not run flat.

I have a 228. Looking over the options,I don’t recall seeing an option to change tires for the 228 xi.

i run the RFs on my daily driver (228xi) since i have to commute the DC beltway and really dont want to be stranded on the side of the road with a flat...it's just too dangerous. on any given day i see 4-5 cars on the shoulder with flat tires...the beltway is just littered with debris. i've found that i end up with something in my tire about once every couple of years and the RFs have always gotten me safely to a place where i can have them repaired/replaced.

that said, i run MPSS on our Z4 garage queen / sunny weekend toy.
