One the best tires I've bought yet.
All good so far with these tires. Would get them again. ... Thanks
they grip. under hard handling conditions they only brake traction if wanted to. so far so good
got these tire about a month ago, they look good on my car. we just had our 1st snow yesterday , but i must say we had a unusual amount fall in a short time. these tires still performed very good. as far as dry traction goes, they are very dependable and grip well to the road. they are a stiff ride but maybe they will be better after a break in period, if there is such a thing. good tires and i would recommend them, the price was right and i like Bridgestone brand.
Outstanding tire, ran a staggered setup, 255/35/18 on rear and 225/40/18 on front. Light snow they were sure footed but when temps dropped below freezing they were sketchy until they warmed upon highway. Rain, they plowed thru in downpours and no hydroplaning when below 65mph. Dry traction, what else can be said , "they are pole positions!" , they will tell you when you are at their limit by squealing, with a staggered setup on these tires I expected understeer in corners but it was neutral. I wished Bridgestone didn't discontinued this tire because the new tire that took its place doesn't get good reviews.
Best tires and best company... Hands down!!!
