Tires Hankook or BRIDGESTONE

I still have the stock wheels and the original Bridgestone Potenza tires. Not being a track junkie, the Bridgestones have served me well and, when they need replaced, I'll probably get them again just because they must have a sturdy, strong sidewall that helps protect the wheel.

Hankook Dynapro HTs(if you’re mostly doing highway miles) or ATs (if you have gravel /dirt.

I've been using Bridgestone TURANZA 6 ALL SEASON since they came out, they are heads and shoulders above CrossClimates in every area other than snow, they are also considerably cheaper not being Michelins.

I've been really happy with the Potenza RE980AS+ on my 2002 New Beetle Sport. The Tire Rack performance numbers are very good across the board.

Also had Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 3s on mine. Didn’t have an option to switch, but I don’t really have any complaints either.

Am ales Bridgestone pt performanța pe uscat și ud, dar cel mai balansat este SF3. Bridgestone e pe un Suzuki Swift 4x4, Hankook a fost pe Sandero Stepway.

They’re excellent.

We swapped in snow tires (blizzaks) and took a 20% efficiency hit, so your reported 33% is definitely worse but still in the same ballpark.

I have bridgestones too but theyre the dueler line, they are super loud and during highway merges or on curvy roads at higher speeds they are jarring.

I'd advise against the RS4 altogether. They wear super slow but they heat cycled out after 100 runs for me. The RE71RS were still competitive at 150 runs. It's a great endurance track tire if you're looking for life, but as an autocross tire it's not actually cheaper per run and it's handling manners are generally terrible for the use.
