Run flats are the biggest rip-off going. I'd toss them immediately.

Your experience is precisely why I never bring my car into a tire place - only the rims themselves off of the car. No joke.

If the joker ever gave me a B.S. story like that I'd have said thanks, gone home, taken a sawsall and cut the damn things off myself, then brought the bare rims back to him and said, "regular set of tires please".
