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!

Driveguard run flats on Tesla M3

Bought Bridgestone run flats for my Tesla. I was surprised that my energy use on the first long drive was about 133 Wh/km which is equal to or a bit lower than my OEM Michelin MxM4 that came with the car and had 4/32 tread left. Normally new tires, whatever the make use more power when new because of the tread dept. They are quieter than the Michelins despite not having the EV tunes foam inside the tires like the old Michelins . Ride and handling is great. Very happy so far

First experience with Drive Flat design

The tire sales person talked me into getting the DriveGuard Plus since the cost was only about $25 more than the other Bridgestone tires he offered without the drive flat capability. The ride from the new tires is not as smooth as with the old Bridgestone tires (Ecopia) I was used to. I realize the tire design is such that the drive flat capability requires the sidewalls to be stiffer. That results in the irregularities in the road surfaces to create a bumpier ride. If I ever need to drive on a flat tire it will be worth it to have lost the smoother ride. It is not clear what the impact of the rougher ride will be on the suspension, shocks and struts, but now I am worried about that. Time will tell!

Cadillac ats

The run flat tires are great but they are so noisy, it sounds like I'm driving a 4 wheel truck. Traction is great and very positive on cornering. Haven't driven in snow yet but my ATS is all wheel drive so it should be good. I wish I purchased a spare tire and went without run flat tires. I just hate the road noise from them.

Initial impressions

Trying the new drive guard plus tires after two previous sets of driveguards. So far the plus tires seem to have a bit more precision in regards to handling twisty dry roads. Only one drive in rain and they performed well at highway speed. Only gripe so far is they are a bit rougher over expansion joints than the original driveguards. Am curious how they manage in a Northern Minnesota winter.

Garbage Tires

These are the worst tires I have ever had on a vehicle. My van has just over 82,000 miles on it, and my third set of run flat tires have worn out in less than a year. Even though my van came with run flat tires because it does not come with a spare, I am done with these crappy tires. I am putting non-run flat Michelin tires on.

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.

Outstanding Run Flat Tires

These tires are so comfortable and quiet that it's hard to believe they're run-flats! The dry and wet traction is excellent, too. All in all, it is an outstanding replacement tire; I highly recommend it!

Great Tires Hands Down

After many hours of research, I decided on these tires. These tires perform amazingly well. Smooth and quite ride. On dry road or wet they grab the road. Around bends or through tight corners, performance and design exceeds expectations.

Comfort and Quiet

Replaced the Pirelli p zeros that came with the car, and couldn't be happier. Everything improved from handling to comfort and road noise. Excellent tire.
