Can you recommend some run flat tyres?

I have a 2015 BMW 1 Series that needs all four tyres replacing. I'm unable to find a particular make/model on the internet that stands out. Can you help? Currently, I have Bridgestone Potenza that seem very good - is there anything that better? Many thanks.

Your current Potenza are summer tyres designed for performance. I say if you like them, then it's a good bet to stick with something familiar that you know you like. If you do want to browse other choices, we hear good things about Bridgestone Driveguard and Michelin Pilot Sport 4. The Michelins also offer some protection from kerbing.
