A total no brainer! On a winding back road to Mailibu caught a fallen rock and side wall puncture. Easy opportunity to get rear ended. Little opportunity to pull off road. Fat chance getting a...

Thanks. I will add that I noticed a huge improvement compared to OEM Goodyears. I've read a lot here about RF v NON-R-F. I need the security of RF and find the ride comfort fine.
