think of emergency convenience, tire change skill level, replacement tire availability, etc.
personally, I'm willing to forego a bit of handling and ride comfort with RFT (I also have air suspension). i don't track it, and my petite wife drives it occasionally and can't change a tire.
she actually had a RFT blowout from a pothole a few weeks ago on her G30 on a narrow access road with no shoulder. fortunately, she was able to make it to kid's daycare where she called me. (i was already at work.) if it were a non-RFT, she would've been dead in the water waiting for roadside assistance.
