Run flats
After seeing a vast amount of posts strongly suggesting you do away with the ridiculously hard run flats, I've gone and replaced with a fresh set of non-run flat tyres, and WOW!!!! I see what all the talk was about, the difference is like night and day!!!

I run non rft's GY asym, 18 inch, 38 front also 38psi rears. Rft rear was recommended 42 on a 23i, but too hard, tyre crown wears and a bit jumpy.
MOT station checked wear and was even across all tyres.
They even adjusted my headlights, up.
