Can you suggest a runflat tyre brand that gives a smooth ride?

I have been running Pirelli P7 runflats (225/55 R17 Y) on my BMW 5 Series for years. Is there now a runflat available which might give a less hard ride?

Bridgestone has recently introduced Driveguard as its latest range of runflats with a different type of sidewall from before: www.bridgestone.co.uk/driveguard/
