My A8 does not have it.

Would I be better off getting the standard Eagle F1 GS-D3's from you guys?

Thank you!

Runflats should be used with some sort of active pressure monitory system. If you were to get a nail or other slow leak, it is nearly impossible to tell from the drivers seat whether these tires are at 35psi or 5psi... untill a catastrophic failure occurs from overheating. Best to stick with nonrunflats if your car doesn't have TPMS.
