Bridgestone Driveguard

Yes, the Driveguard comes in 225/50R18 and 245/45/R18 to fit a 370Z Touring coupe. Why did you choose the A3 vs the Pilot SS?

The PSS is a performance summer tire. The AS/3 is an all-season. They're not really in the same category and not often cross shopped. If you want performance like the PSS, you don't get an all season (or run flats). If you need all season tires, you don't get extreme performance summer tires.

I wanted an all season tire so I went with the AS/3s. The 370 sat in the garage way too often last winter due to the cold, and since putting on the AS/3s, I've been able to drive it more and no more "chirping" when cold and I really don't think you give up that much with them on the street. They were top rated A/S ultra high performance tire by Tire Rack.

No regrets whatsover.

I don't believe the Driveguards are available for the Z w/Sport Pkg. tire sizes.
