Yes to 18" wheels. Yes to runflats, only because I got them at a very good price along with the wheels!

Having said that I have just replaced my summer runflats with non runflats.

By the way the winter runflats on the 18" wheels [square setup], feel just as comfortable and handle very similar to the non run flats on the 19" staggered setup.

You are aware that the rubber compound on winter tyres is different (stickier) and some manufacturer's compounds contain sunflower oil to achieve this?
