I'm also guessing the rear has the height controlling air suspension due to the new displacement sensitive shocks. These need to be kept in the same position regardless of weight in the car to function as designed.
Probably went with mobility kit and Non-RFT due to unsprung weight.

Run flat carcases are heavy compared to the non run flat tires.
