Removed rear window louver to clean window and found all the mounts (12 off) just hanging on. Removed all brackets, double sided tape remnants and cleaned and re installed - that was the useful part of the day gone…still it won’t be blowing off or causing an accident now..😅

I hope they work out for you and make you happy. Personally, oooff. Only experience I had with run flats made me never want run flats. Heavy and seemingly lower quality tires. I'll always prefer to throw a spare on vs driving with rubber slapping my fender and throwing debris all over the road too. Again, just me and I hope it works out better for you and makes you happy.

Got a P0456 (Very small leak) CEL a few weeks ago. Replaced the evap switch in the engine bay. No change. Took it too a local shop to get it smoke tested. They said it looked like the line that went to the passenger side (Fuel Vapor tube). They also said that they would suggest that I take it to a dealer and have them smoke test it.

Dealer said Replace the fuel tank. And we wont do it. Too many mod's on the car. Tune is locked... yada yada yada.

So, I replaced the fuel tank. Can be done with one person, it helps if there are 2. New tank did not come with the heat shield that the old one did. Ordered that from Summit. Tank has been in a couple weeks, and no new CEL. Going to check progress this weekend and see what all has checked in.

I've had them for years on my other Mustangs w/o any issue. Ditto my Corvettes. The early Goodyears on the C6 were garbage. That is why GM switch to Michelin. These are Pirelli P Zero in the OE sizes. Not sure how long ago you had them. The new generation emts are not like the older ones. They are a lifesaver when one lives in rural TX as I do along with spotty cell reception. Hit a quad ball mount from a hitch that fell off a pickup at 85 on I-10 east of El Paso this past summer. The run flats got me to El Paso at 55 mph w/o issue. I'd have been screwed otherwise.

I switched to Bridgestone Potenza runflats on my C6 GS. Loved those.
Quiet and smooth.

I bought factory takeoff black leather from a 2021 convertible being modified by Shelby American. The shipment should arrive at my house from Las Vegas by this weekend.
Well, they shipped a black coupe leather interior instead of the convertible set that was clearly listed in the ad. :curse:
