I damaged a tire and had to replace it, it was extremely hard finding that tire in city of 2,000,000+ people. Nissan wanted to charge $400 for one and of course they didn't have it in stock. I chose run flats, the ride isn't too rough but there is a difference. Those tires are HUGE, I really didn't notice until they were taken off the car. I read a lot of complaints about road noise, that doesn't bother me.
I KNEW this would happen to someone eventually! Breaking the lock when a flat occurred, that is.

Also, that price for the tire is about right. Its not the size, so much that its an awkward size. I bet the price of an 18 or 20" equivalent is cheaper...
