Thumbs up New Spec Run Flats

We have had our Indigo/Ecru SC 430 with the new spec "NZ" Bridgestone run flats for two months and 2600 miles and so far have really enjoyed the car with the oem tires. The ride is excellent and have not noticed the noise complained of in other posts. It came with the new wheel centers.

It has been 6000 miles and still like the Bridgestone nz runflats.

only a few hundred miles for me on the 04 Black/Ecru, but the car is much smoother than the older model with the older runflats. None of the problems which the other people are complaining about with the runflats are noticeable with the new version of the tires.

AND,

Lexus is giving me free tires for 4 years!

My ride improved dramatically, when they installed the updated bushings on the rear end.
