one run-flat tire on my z a problem??

i think probably okay since outer diameter should be the same.

but tire response is different between runflat and non-runflat tires so i would keep the psi on the higher end around 37-38 (cold) so that the non-runflat performs similarly to the stiffer runflat.

if you can return it, i recommend doing that and get the right one.

the runflat is at 26.7" diameter while all the non runflats are at 26.5". Is that enough to worry or affect anything?
