Best Run-Flats I've had!

These DriveGuard Run-Flats are the best RFs, I've had. I won't use any other brand. Great traction, low road noise (for a Run-flat), decent ride (for a Run-flat) and they stay in balance! I've had other brands and they get out of balance and are impossible to rebalance. I live in an extremely hilly part of the Bay Area (CA) and they tear up the road to my house. We also do road trips all around the state and they are wonderful. Can't recommend them enough>

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.

New Tires

Great service from Dubois County Tire on helping me select a Run Flat Tire. Previous Run Flat Tires have saved me twice before. No rim or body damage either time while running at highway speeds when tire went down and was able to continue on towards our destination. Highly recommend these type tires.
