Tires BRIDGESTONE or OEM Toyota

BRIDGESTONE Tires

Michelin is expensive, almost double more expensive than Bridgestone. I have not seen anything different between them so far. I like the Bridgestone so far.

Pros: likes Bridgestone
Cons: Michelin is expensive

I decided to do a shotgun approach to find the solution so I upgraded the dog bone and pendulum mount, eibach sport springs, apr rear sway, 18x9 oz wheels with 235 45 18 re-71’s, I don’t think those tires last very long but wow they’re awesome for now. I can make the tires spin if I want but I can actually launch my car and ease my way through first pretty good and then 2nd on is no traction problems to speak of.

Pros: awesome grip, good launch
Cons: short lifespan

2 seasons before moving to NC, I purchases some expensive [Blizzaks](https://www.bridgestonetire.com/tire-brand/blizzak) that had not been swapped out for summer tires before the car was shipped here (shipped in March). Once we were settled in Durham, I took the car to a local place to get my inspection for plates and all the old guys at Ingold Tire were like "what are these?". They had never seen "snow tires" and they SELL tires.

Mine is so great in the city, can whip a U-turn anywhere and gets 30-35 MPG no matter how you drive it. I am kind of sad you can't get cars like this anymore, but it is kind of hard to justify when something that's an order of magnitude more refined is only like $1500 more. But there is something fun about ripping around in something 153" long that only weighs 2300 lbs. It never needs brakes and doesn't eat up tires no matter how "spiritedly" I drive.

Pros: great in the city, fun
Cons: small, unrefined

Love these tires. Run them on my WRX which is significantly heavier, and am between 28 and 30 PSI depending on ambient temp. They are very progressive with their grip, at the upper limits of grip, it is progressive in how much it slips, not just all or nothing. Have fun with them!

Pros: progressive grip, progressive slip
Vehicle: Subaru

I’ve had the Bridgestone Ecopias on my previous car 2010 Mazda 3 GT and now my 2019 Jetta. I have found better mileage on these tires than with others. Not great in heavy snow so I put snows on for the winter.

Pros: better mileage
Cons: not great in snow

Riding on Ecopia 422 215 16 inch stock tires. At 34k they just may be a little more audible - emphasis on little.

Pros: superior fuel numbers
Cons: a little more audible
Mileage: 54718 km

My Civic Hybrid has Bridgestone Ecopias. Grip is pretty bad, but they are very predictable, in that they kind of start to warn you when they are losing grip, then gradually go from having grip to not having grip. Very smooth transition and very easy to correct any slides. Have noticed they appear to be wearing quite quickly as well.

Pros: predictable, smooth transition
Cons: bad grip, wear quickly
Vehicle: Honda Civic
