Default Tire replacement
My run flats are too noisey and hard. What tires do you recommend as replacements? My goal is comfort ride and very little road noise. Thanks. Jim.

What brand of tire and size are you running? I personally prefer Goodyear beyond any other manufacturer. Second best would be either Michelin or BF Goodrich.

Good luck,
Dino

p.s. Bridgestone/Firestone have been 1 company for many years now.
