I checked Costco and this seems to be the same as replacing all 4 tires atleast once and this seems like an overwhelming expense for a road hazard warranty. What is your opinion on it?
Ditch the run flats and you'll decrease the likelihood of tire replacement. In my opinion, the stiffer walls of the RFTs cause them to pick up debris easier, plus they're not repairable. I didn't have flats for decades until I owned BMWs. One of the reasons I'll swap mine out as soon as I take delivery.
