Bridgestone 020049 DriveGuard Plus 235/50R19 103V XL BSW Run-Flat All-Season Tire

The Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus 235/50R19 is a Grand Touring All-Season run-flat tire engineered for drivers of sedans, coupes, CUVs, and SUVs who demand premium comfort, year-round traction, and the added security of extended mobility after a puncture.

Run-Flat Technology:

Bridgestone's next-generation run-flat technology allows continued driving for up to 50 miles at speeds up to 50 MPH following a puncture or pressure loss — eliminating the need to immediately pull over and change a tire. This makes the DriveGuard Plus an ideal replacement for TPMS-equipped vehicles, whether or not the vehicle originally came equipped with run-flat tires.

Key Features:

• 3D Full-Depth Sipe Technology — Silica-enhanced compound combined with full-depth sipes delivers consistent all-season grip in dry, wet, and light snow conditions throughout the life of the tire
• Asymmetric Tread Pattern — A 5-rib asymmetric design with stiff outboard blocks promotes stable braking, confident cornering, and optimized steering response
• Advanced Hydroplaning Resistance — Wide circumferential grooves with zero-degree draft angles and open shoulder slots efficiently evacuate water and reduce hydroplaning risk, even as the tire wears
• Reinforced Sidewalls — Double steel belts with nylon-cap reinforcement and 2-ply polyester casing provide the structural support needed to maintain vehicle control after air pressure loss
• Comfortable Ride — Bridgestone's optimized tread pitch and sidewall compliance technology significantly reduce the harshness typically associated with run-flat tires, delivering a quieter, smoother touring experience
• XL Load Range — Extra load rated for heavier passenger car and crossover applications

Warranty & Ratings:

• 65,000-mile limited treadwear warranty
• UTQG: 640 A A (Treadwear / Traction / Temperature)
• Black Sidewall (BSW)

The Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus combines the peace of mind of proven run-flat technology with the all-season capability and touring comfort expected from a premium Bridgestone tire — making it a smart, safety-conscious upgrade for everyday driving.
