Experience w/215x40-18 NonRF?
Would like input from those that have tried 215x40-18 non-runflat setups as to ride quality (wife's car) and fitment. Pics would be great also.

35s, not 40s. Check my gallery. General UHPs. Nicer comfort than my wife's old Kuhmo Ecstas 17s. According to minihune (NAM tire guru) the 40s will work if not lowered. I'm getting a little rubbing from the felt, no hard part rubbing with my 215/35/18s and I'm lowered.
