I put on the Bridgestone run flat to do the Butt LIte 8 and thought I'd give some review of it. The tire now has approx 7k miles on it.
The tire is a bear to mount. The sidewalls are very still and you aren't getting this on with your no-mar. Once mounted it fits well in the frame with no rubs. The tire is fairly rounded with a 6.5 in treadwidth.
I much prefer it over the Hankook and the Michellin I had run before. It is stiffer in the corners, more predictable, no squirrelly-ness. It is wearing very well. Looks new at 7K (is rated for 60K). I ran this at 38 psi and in the heat (97 degrees in Nevada) the tire pressure rises to about 45 psi.
Good tire. Best car tire I have run. Can't comment on it's ability to run with out air. Yet.
