I don't have many miles on mine and I haven't hard warm weather since buying the car 2 months ago, so I don't have a real opinion yet. At face value I'd take them as an adequate summer performance tire?

Yes they are the same Goodyear's. I didn't haven't anything to compare them with either when I first got the car. They are heavily criticized on this forum. They deteriorated quickly with age and a couple of AZ summers. Again, pretty sure the tires weren't very good, but no idea how bad.
Decided I didn't want to continue beating me and my new car up, bit the bullet and replaced the run flats (at 7500 miles). My only regret is not doing it sooner. The car is softer, better isolated (a massively amount better isolated) with no loss in handling. I used to come home from a day out having fun beat up and tired. Not anymore.
YMMV
