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.

Better than Original Equipment Tires

My new Bridgestone Driveguard Plus tires give me better handling, better traction, a better warranty, and a quieter ride that the original equipment Pirelli tires, at a much better price. I would definitely recommend Bridgestone Driveguard Plus tires for anyone shopping for tires.

Much improved

I drove on Driveguards previous version (2 sets in fact) and was never truly satisfied. They produced some road noise and never felt smooth/comfortable. The new 'plus' tire is much improved in these 2 features, and seems to maintain all other positives. This might be the best run flat tire out there now - certainly for the price!
