No difference RFT vs non RFT regarding puncture frequency for me. My frequency comes and goes, 2-3 for a year followed by none for many years. I think its related to the construction you drive through. It was far worse when my neighborhood was being built. And then again when a new section opened up.

I have a local tire store that will repair RFTs but do say any sign of damage will require a new tire.

My dealer offers a wheel and tire insurance. I always go for that given the low profile rims as well as the cost of the tires.
