ZO6s don't come with runflats. I replaced mine with BFG G-Force KDWs -- not runflats but I think they hold and handle better than the "Supercar" tires (in fairness they handle and roadhold very well, they just don't handle acceleration or limit wheelspin worth a damn). What if I have a flat? I bought a back and a mini-spare from a Camaro (pitched the patch kit that comes with the car).

its up to you what you want.i ,m sure someone makes runflats in your size ,but you will give up some performance.i put z06 rims and tires on my 01 coup and carried a comp. and fix a flat,had i flat that neither could fix,drove 1 miles very slow to get help.i have runflats on my 07 z06 with 8 k on it when it comes time for tires i will look hard at non run flats
