So today I took my car in for new pair of PSS in the front. Got home and realized I have some run flat pilot sport tires instead.

My M3 has been my commuter lately and I likely won't have time to drop the car off to correct this until the weekend.

I'm wondering if they're are any safety and/or performance concerns I should know about.

You can drive it on run flats but don't push it if you lose pressure. The stock wheels weren't designed with the extra lip that is needed to drive on a run flat tire. You'll likely notice that it has a stiffer ride due to the stiffer side walls. Regular PSS are a fantastic tire so it's definitely worth every penny.

I wouldn't want it any other way on my car. The run flats did make small bumps more noticeable and the steering feels a little off as compared to the PSS that I was supposed to have on there
