Bridgestone DriveGuard Run Flat
This model is a Grand Touring All-Season tire available with a self-supporting version (run-flat) designed for owners of family sedans, luxury crossovers, and premium SUVs who are looking for more safety, controllability, and comfort. The run-flat technology provides temporary extended mobility for a distance of 50 miles up to 50 mph even after a puncture has allowed complete air pressure loss.
The Bridgestone DriveGuard model is developed to ensure year-round driving flexibility, offering responsive handling, good traction, and extra control and stability on dry and wet roads. This model comes with an advanced silica-enhanced all-season tread compound molded into an asymmetric tread pattern designed to ensure confident traction, handling response, and extra cornering stability.
For safety reasons, the Bridgestone engineers use circumferential and cross grooves designed to better water evacuation to increase hydroplaning resistance. The Bridgestone engineers use two steel belts that are nylon reinforced by a polyester cord body to provide extra strength and durability. A polyester cord body helps to increase ride comfort and tire lifespan. Best of all, this model is available from 15 to 19-inch sizes and is backed by an exceptional treadwear warranty.
Bridgestone DriveGuard Run Flat Features and benefits
Advanced all-season tire with black sidewalls.
Nanopro-tech rubber sidewall improves the tire durability, making it capable of supporting the entire weight of the vehicle.
Optimized contact patch for better weight distribution across the entire surface, providing uniform wear and longevity.
Asymmetrical tread pattern for extra aquaplaning resistance.
Proprietary cooling fins help to reduce heat build-up and friction for added low-pressure mobility.

Do you have a question about DRIVEGUARD RUN FLAT 235/65RF17 104H?
Yes, the Bridgestone DriveGuard is a run-flat tire, meaning it can temporarily support the vehicle's weight even after a complete loss of air pressure. Using Bridgestone’s proprietary NanoPro-Tech sidewall technology, the DriveGuard can continue to drive for up to 50 miles at speeds up to 50 mph after a puncture. This feature provides drivers with extra safety and convenience, allowing them to reach a repair facility without requiring an immediate tire change.
Yes, the Bridgestone DriveGuard is designed with noise reduction in mind to provide a quiet driving experience. Its asymmetric tread pattern and optimized contact patch help to minimize tread noise by promoting even wear and reducing vibrations. Additionally, the carefully engineered tread grooves are shaped to channel air smoothly through the footprint, further enhancing overall driving comfort with reduced road noise.
Bridgestone DriveGuard tires are manufactured in Bridgestone’s global network of production facilities, which include plants in the United States, Japan, and other countries. The exact manufacturing location for a specific DriveGuard tire depends on factors such as tire size and regional market demand.
Yes, the Bridgestone DriveGuard is designed for year-round use, providing confident performance in a wide range of weather conditions. Its advanced silica-enhanced all-season tread compound and asymmetric tread pattern work together to ensure solid traction on dry, wet, and even light snowy roads.
Yes, the Bridgestone DriveGuard performs well on wet roads due to its advanced tread design and circumferential and cross grooves. These grooves efficiently channel water away from the tire’s contact patch, reducing the risk of hydroplaning and enhancing wet traction.
Yes, the Bridgestone DriveGuard is designed with fuel efficiency in mind. The optimized contact patch reduces unnecessary friction and rolling resistance, allowing the tire to roll more smoothly and consume less fuel. Combined with Bridgestone’s advanced tread compound, this results in improved fuel economy and reduced environmental impact over the life of the tire.
