Couldn't find that reference, but did find this. Bold emphasis is mine.
"This time around, our test car’s demerits accumulated in other performance categories. The skidpad score, for example, came in at 0.86 g, versus 0.89 in 2013. More lamentable—make that dismal—was this car’s braking distance: 186 feet from 70 mph. There was never a trace of fade, but that’s 22 feet longer than our 2013 test car’s performance.
However, we think these grip and braking stats can be easily improved. Simply discard the all-season run-flat tires—in this case Pirelli Cinturato P7, size 225/45-18—and substitute some real performance rubber. "
