Questions about this tire

What does the RFT designation mean on this tire?

RFT stands for Run-Flat Technology, a Bridgestone innovation introduced in 1986. It allows the tire to support the vehicle and continue operating at up to 50 mph even after a complete loss of air pressure, giving you time to reach a service location safely without an immediate roadside tire change.

Is this tire suitable for winter driving?

The Turanza EL400-RFT is an all-season tire, meaning it handles light winter conditions such as cold temperatures, light snow, and wet roads reasonably well. However, it is not Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake certified, so it is not rated for severe snow service. Drivers in regions with heavy snowfall or icy roads would be better served by a dedicated winter tire.

Does this tire require a special wheel or TPMS system?

Run-flat tires are typically paired with vehicles that have a factory-installed tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), since the tire's reinforced sidewall can mask the feel of pressure loss. Most vehicles originally equipped with run-flat tires already include TPMS. Confirm compatibility with your vehicle before purchasing.

What is the mileage warranty on the Turanza EL400-RFT?

Bridgestone backs this tire with a 40,000-mile tread warranty. The tire's wear-resistant rubber compound is specifically designed to promote even tread wear, helping you get the most out of that coverage.

Can I replace just one or two run-flat tires, or do they need to be replaced in sets?

It is generally recommended to replace run-flat tires in pairs on the same axle to maintain balanced handling and braking performance. Mixing run-flat and standard tires on the same vehicle is not advisable, as the different sidewall constructions can affect how the vehicle handles. Consult your vehicle owner's manual for manufacturer guidance.

Buying from TFS Wheels

Shipping, returns & guarantees

Authorized Dealer — 100% Brand New Wheels & Tires

TFS Wheels is an authorized dealer for every brand we carry. Every wheel and tire we ship is brand new, unused, and packaged in its original manufacturer's box. We never sell refurbished, demo, or return-stock product. All manufacturer warranties apply and our warehouse is staffed by people who only handle wheels and tires — no in-transit damage, no test-fits, no surprises.

Free Shipping (Lower 48)

Free shipping on every order — wheels, tires, and accessories — to the contiguous United States. No minimum order, no hidden fees.

Standard delivery is 4–7 business days; expedited is 1–4 business days. Orders placed before 1:00 PM ET typically ship the same day. We do not ship internationally or to PO boxes.

Fitment Guarantee

If a wheel or tire marked "Direct Fit" or "Aftermarket Fit" for your vehicle arrives and does not fit as expected, we cover both the restocking fee and return shipping. The same applies if the bolt pattern does not match — provided your vehicle information was submitted at checkout.

To qualify for the guarantee, enter your year, make, model, and submodel before placing the order.

Manufacturer's Warranty

Every wheel and tire is covered by the full manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Coverage terms vary by brand — most cover structural integrity for the life of the wheel and finish for 1 to 2 years from purchase. If you ever have a warranty question, contact us first; we work directly with the manufacturer on your behalf so you don't have to.

Accessories Included with Your Order

When you submit your vehicle information at checkout, the right lug nuts and (if needed) hub-centric rings are automatically added to your cart in the correct sizes — no guessing, no separate ordering.

TPMS sensors are also available in the cart. We program each sensor to your vehicle's exact year, make, model, and submodel before shipping, so they arrive ready to sync with your truck or car the moment they're installed. This typically saves customers the dealer or installer's programming fees, which often run several dozen dollars per wheel.

Returns

Returns are accepted within 30 days of purchase on items in new, unused condition. A 25% restocking fee applies to general (change-of-mind) returns, and the buyer covers return shipping.

The restocking fee and return shipping are waived for incorrect items, transit damage, or fitment issues when vehicle information was provided at checkout. Single wheels, single tires, mounted items, special orders, and accessories (lug nuts, locks, hub-centric rings, TPMS sensors, installation kits) are final sale.
