Great tires poor service

Great tires but unfortunately they went on sale 3 days after I purchased. Went back to get a credit and they wouldn’t give it to me. Frustrating on a $1k set of tires

Driveguard run flats for my mini

Don’t normally like run flats, but took apiece of metal out in the middle of nowhere. These were great.The best for run flats.

The nightmare is over...

A heartfelt thank you to the engineers at Bridgestone for developing a great tire. The Driveguard Plus tires have exceeded my already high expectations for these tires. The ride is very comfortable and quiet and the grip is very reassuring. I have recommended to several friends who own BMWs to swap their other runflats to these Driveguard Plus tires. Thank you Bridgestone, driving my MINI is fun again.
