Tires

Hi guys, haven't been here in a while. I need some new tires for my Countryman and was wondering what kinda of tire you recommend? I would like something in a run flat and being very cushy!

Bridgestone Driveguards are the latest tech of the RF type of tires. I have them on my F56 and they are a lot better than the other RF's I've used. "Cushy", no I can't call them that, they still ride a bit hard.

Look on the lists for Runflats at bottom.
Bridgestone Driveguard is about as comfortable as runflats go but still very firm riding.
