Recommended runflats

I know I will get flamed for this,
But I want to put runflats on my 2016 m5
Since I don't want to be stranded with 2 kids.
Rather drive the car to somewhere safe and deal with it
Instead of road side or carrying a spare which will
Take away trunk space with kids stuff in the car.

Anyone recommend any brand or size?
Also, is it true that some M6 came with run flats?

Runflat tires are heavy and will change the dynamic of your car!
Also, neither M6 nor any other M-cars (M2/M3/M4/M5) are coming with runflat...
or at least F series M-cars are all tubeless

Run flats are inferior tires. In the interests of safety I would not go this route but invest in a good emergency flat tire repair kit.
