Tires are designed specifically for different vehicles and wheel sizes. Tell us about your vehicle or the specific size you want so we can help find the right tires for you.

Street/Sport Truck Summer run-flat light truck tires provide temporary self-supporting run-flat mobility for a distance of 50 miles at up to 50 mph, even after a puncture has allowed complete air pressure loss. They are designed for drivers who want to combine aggressive low-profile tires with large rim diameter wheels to enhance their vehicle's appearance. Sometimes used as Original Equipment (O.E.) on 2WD and 4WD pickup, crossover and sport utility vehicles, Street/Sport Truck Summer tires are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.

O.E. Street/Sport Truck Summer run-flat light truck tires are typically purchased as direct replacements for worn-out pairs/sets of the vehicle's original tires. They can also be used for other vehicle applications in complete sets of four or axle pairs if available in an appropriate size, load range and speed rating to match the existing O.E. run-flat tires' performance category and specifications.

NOTE: Run-flat tires are only recommended for vehicles that are originally equipped with self-supporting run-flat tires and equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system.

Though they cannot be labeled as run-flat tires, tires branded with MOExtended or MOE on their sidewalls offer run-flat-like characteristics by delivering limited temporary extended mobility after a puncture results in complete loss of air pressure. Because MOExtended or MOE tires do not have the same speed and distance endurance of conventional run-flat tires, they should not be substituted in any situation where a conventional run-flat tire is required. To confirm what your vehicle needs, check our Original Equipment tire listing for your year, make and model or see your vehicle owner's manual.

Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport RFT Reviews

User feedback reveals the Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport RFT excels in dry traction, with scores consistently hitting 9-10 for confident cornering and responsive handling. Wet traction shows strong performance (many 8-10 ratings) but mixed results, with some reports of hydroplaning in heavy rain. Ride comfort earns praise for smoothness (7-10 range), though noise levels vary widely-some note excessive road noise. Treadwear is a key concern, with frequent low scores (0-5) indicating premature wear despite the tire's summer-focused design. Summer-focused drivers appreciate its dry-focused capabilities, but tread durability may disappoint those seeking long-term value.

...Driven in the wet, dry, ice and snow and have zero issues in any condition, never felt unsafe or questioning the grip of the tire

First impressions it's a good tire for the price. Could be quieter but not really a complaint since runflats typically are a harder louder tire. Driven in the wet, dry, ice and snow and have zero issues in any condition, never felt unsafe or questioning the grip of the tire

12500 miles and counting but I'm very close to needing replacements. These tires perform very well in both wet and dry conditions. Cornering and handling has been great and I've put them to the test on curvy north GA moutain roads. These tires have worn very evenly. I will say that I'm unimpressed with the rate at which these tires have degraded. I would like a 25,000 mile tire and I believe the Continental tire may be my best bet. I won't be buying these Bridgestones again.

Excellent dry traction and handling; stiff, jarring ride (somewhat expected with run-flat tires); very nice sidewall with a substantial rim protector bead. Even though these are "summer" tires, they did respectably in the occasional SoCal rain. They were original equipment on the car, and I would have considered replacing them with the same tire if not for the price. $265 each? No way. I went with Continental SSR all-season run-flats for about $150 per tire.

...I had a cheap brand before, and these tires are not only quieter but handle amazingly! I don't get too much wet weather in SOCAL but the performance on dry pavement is outstanding.

These tires are normally over $400/ea but were on sale because they were mfg a couple years ago. I bought them because they were original equipment for my X5. I had a cheap brand before, and these tires are not only quieter but handle amazingly! I don’t get too much wet weather in SOCAL but the performance on dry pavement is outstanding.

I purchased these Bridgestones on closeout and I did consider going with non run flat tire, but fitting a spare tire was too expensive.They ride slightly better than stock Pirelli tires, and are quieter too.Installation in my driveway was great and no hassle. For the price I feel they were a good value.

Despite some 9-10 scores, numerous 0-6 ratings highlight premature wear and rapid tread loss. Many customers report needing early replacement, citing poor mileage and excessive wear.

Purchased a set of rear tires last September (2023), the thread is nearly all gone and the rubber looks shredded. I did not change my driving style, or the roads I'm driving on. They must have changed the rubber compound, because having to purchase a set less than one year apart is unacceptable...

...10,000 miles later they were shot. I was not happy... Then on top is a very thin layer of extremely sticky rubber that wears away MUCH too quickly...

These are by far the WORST tires I have ever owned in my 25 years of driving. They were BMW OEM on my X5 M Sport. It came with a tire warranty so I've been through a few sets of this garbage.
The car came with a used set that made the most awful road noise. I wondered if there was something wrong with the vehicle. I changed them out and was immediately disturbed by the lack of tread depth on new tires that just cost me over a grand. 10,000 miles later they were shot. I was not happy. Same with another set. The tire carcass is ridiculously rigid to support the run flat spec on a heavy SUV. This makes the ride harsh. Feels like the tires are made of wood. Then on top is a very thin layer of extremely sticky rubber that wears away MUCH too quickly.
$1000 for 10,000 miles. A buck every 10 miles for tires!!?? No thanks.
I read up on the forums and switched to Conti non-run-flats. Half the price, double the treadwear and better feel. Please dont buy these Bridgestones, even if they were the OEM tire on your car. They are absolute junk.

...Obviously there are trade-offs when getting higher mileage out of a tire (such as rock-hard rubber, poor cornering/stopping distance...), but this is silly to wear out so quickly. Regular tire rotations and frequent tire inflation checks (the car checks this automatically too) and still won't get much more than another 2k miles, expected total life is 17,000 miles - and that is now a tire that should only be used in dry conditions at this wear limit...

Unhappy with these tires due to premature wear. Had a set of these tires on different car (X5) due to fact that there are not many run flat (RFT) options. Considering going non-RFT and just ensuring AAA is available when/if needed like with any normal tire issue. RFT makes tires ride too harsh and expensive. Would be nice if there were a decent RFT tire option that was not $300+/tire (poor past experience with Pirelli won't have me return to their products either).

Looking for non-RFT to replace. Another reviewer aptly noted that alignment specs can vary widely, always make sure it is set for extended tire life unless you are a track-rat and don't mind replacing tires every 6 months.
