Not sure about speed limited, I don’t think that is the case since you can get Michelin Cup 2 tires in run flat or what Michelin calls Zero Pressure.
I’ve had run flats on a C5 Corvette, 2006 Viper Coupe, and my wife has them on her Mini Cooper.
General observation is they do have a more jarring ride and transmit more road noise than non run-flats.
By far the best run-flats were the Michelin Super Sports which were OEM on the viper and those tires were much quieter and less jarring than the Goodyear’s on the Vette. I chose run flats just to eliminate one less potential cause which could require towing the SLC. Also, this will be a street car and perhaps would have chosen differently if I intended to take it to the track.
