Tires BRIDGESTONE or GT Radial

Put these on for the first time after running potenza since new; honestly it’s like having a new car. They are the perfect road tyre for this car.

I went with Bridgestone Potenza Sport AS, as I got too good of a deal to pass up, and have been very happy with them so far!

im still running a set of Potenza Re002. Theyve been discontinued from Bridgestone, but theyre still around as Firestone Firehawk Indy500. I love them.

I just installed GT Radial on my truck and they’re actually great! So far very pleased!

RE71RS are what all the winning cars use in the series I run in.

Recently paid approx. $1,000 for Bridgestone DriveGuard all-season run flats on our 2015 AWD XLE, including mounting and balancing.

From a consumer preference side, they are probably the only brand that has the same level of reputation as Michelin. Also, they are consistently the top performing tire supplier in the ultra competitive Super GT, often ahead of Michelin teams.

There was about 3-4 mm of tread left on the tires when I replaced the original Bridgestone S005s (with 7,000 miles including one track day). I had a track day coming up so I wanted fresh tires but might have got a little more life if I really pushed them. I remember reading reviews on Tire Rack's website about people getting similarly short life out of them (maybe the other alternative OEM tires fare better but they're all 240 TW). I replaced the Bridgestones with Michelin PS4S (300 TW), so it will be interesting to see how they do. To be honest, on previous cars, I've never got more than about 25,000 miles our of HP or UHP all-season tires with 500-600 TW ratings so the 7,000 - 8,000 miles for these didn't surprise me.

Bridgestone tires suck, and you'll have to live with them for five years (if they last that long).

Based on the fact that my Bridgestone Alenza Sport tires are wearing out after only 9K miles, I would avoid Bridgestone like the plague.
