Summer vs All Season RunFlats - What do I have?

I just tok delivery of my new Clubman last week. I had ordered 16-ich All Season Run Flats, but I am not sure that's what I have. The car came equipped with GoodYear Excellence RunFlats, but nowhere on the literature that I got with the car,or on the tire themselves does it say All Season.

So I visited the Tire Rack website and it lists the GoodYear Excellence as a Grand Touring Summer tire, not as an All Season. Cam anyone shed some light on what kind of tires I have? TIA.

The G'year Excellence tire is a summer tire not all season.

"Original Equipment (OE) summer tires are an appropriate tire choice for sporty vehicles manufactured in the U.S., as well as those imported from Europe and Asia. Developed for use on new cars and light trucks, these tires provide a sporty blend of ride quality, noise comfort and handling, along with dry and wet traction. These tires are not intended to be driven in snow"
