RE050 vs RE050A

[un1eash]

What's the difference between the re050 and re050a runflats? I need 2 new tyres and the non 'a' are £30 cheaper for the pair.

The tread patterns. Check Bridgestone's website for details. But I would not mix a pair of RE050A with pair of RE050.

at the price they are gonna cost, go for a full set of non rft's, just changed and cant believe the difference, it drives as smooth as silk now.

Interesting then, think i'll just go for the RE050A's then. I dont mind the RFT's and while the cars under warranty i dont want to annoy them or my insurance.
