The thing is, Bridgestone doesn't make a Blizzak with the multi-cell compound in a RunFlat. They only make Blizzak LM-22 RFT tires in the 16" size (205/55/R16) and those aren't really a maximum traction Studless Winter tire. They have no choices in the 207/50 R17 size in runflats.... The WS-60 seems great and an improvement over the REVO1s currently on my Toyota Sienna FWD LE but I really want to keep the runflat feature for my 128i. So I am going with the Hakkapeliitta R 205/55/R16 (Runflat) on BMW 16" wheels from the 128i base convertible on my 128i coupe. They are $223 per tire which seems pricey but they are warranteed by my dealer for 5 years...
They also make a Hakkapeliitta 5 (Without Studs) in 205/50 R17 size (Runflat) for $323 per tire. (Ouch). The R is supposed to be the newest and best design.
I think I'll go with WS-60s for my Sienna Van which carries a spare tire.
I'll let everyone know how the Hakkas are after we get some snow.
