Can someone please tell me if therre is a difference between Run Flat Tyres and Tubeless Tyres?
Boss has a BMW - wants winter tyres put on, his current ones say "tubeless" and he has asked me to find some prices. Everywhere is asking if tyres are run flat (they're supposed to be!) but they all tell me to look for RFT or SSR on the tyres (none are present) but it does say tubeless?
Help!

Tubeless tyres are more common, and what most cars have on them. The run flats are something that BMW decided to put on their cars.

Run flats can be tube less just to make life even harder what model and year might narrow things down.0

What's the make and model of the tyres? Chances are, given that it's a BMW, they will indeed by runflats.0
