Hated Driveguard, Luv Driveguard Plus

A happy day when I replaced my noisy and harsh Driveguards with the Driveguard Plus. Don't get me wrong, the Driveguards were much better than the Pirelli P7 RFs, but the the Driveguard Plus is miles better than the Driveguards. I now enjoy driving on the windy back roads in my town without intrusion of tire noise that I look for any opportunity to run out to the store. Big thanks to the tire engineers at Bridgestone, you made driving fun again!

Good as it gets!

This is definitely the longest wear tire I have had. 55000 on the first set now on my second set so far only been 1500 miles but ride and drive like the first set with very easy handling on steering especially in tight corners. It is a run flat tire and since my vehicle comes with no spare I still have confidence when driving on these tires.

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>
