For the difference in price, I will be using the Bridgestones for two reasons:

Softer compound on the rubber. I like the grip these tires offer for the extreme cornering I like to do.
I feel RFT are a plus for a couple of reasons. I would prefer to be able to get off the freeway in case of a puncture. Also, it could protect the rim from any damage, while you could experience damage with a puncture while using non run flats. I have the spare tire option also, but if I need to, I know I can get by with the run flats until service or a good place to place the spare on, is available. Think of all the different scenerios of when you could get a flat, and the RFT in my mind, are very nice to have.
