Not many of us are conversant with South African consumer law but I'll hazard a guess and say no provided you're getting the approved sizes for your car. Consult your lawyer for proper legal advice.

C180 W205 Exclusive
Same story
Mine is a C180 Exclusive and deeply hate the run-flats on the South African roads.
Running Continental at the moment but the road noice and harsness are terrible.
Merc says i can change it to normal non run-flats, but then again, what happens should a flat happens?

Depending on the flat, a can of gunk might fix it, you'll need a tyre air compressor though. Or you'll need to flatbed it. So get the gunk and a compressor then cross your fingers and toes...
