Bridgestone or Goodyear?
OK, so the original Bridgestone Potenza RE92's are really starting to wear and tear that came with my car (I think they were junk to begin with). I did some searching over the internet n stuff and I found 2 different tires I'm trying to decide on. Bridgestone RE96 Pole Position and the Goodyear Eagle GT. The RE96 runs $75/tire and the GT runs about $65/tire. Both have excellent reviews and ratings. I'm just wondering if anyone else out there has either of these 2 tires and has any suggestions or comments about them? Thanks!

I've had my pole positions for a couple of weeks now. So far they've done me well, although I have yet to take them on a course or track.

go with the B-Stones.

do you mean bridgestone potenza RE960? or is there an RE96. I recommend getting the Bridgestone Potenza's as well

The word is out (well, as far as Car & Driver mag is concerned)! They did a comprehensive low-cost tire test to see which ones are best at:
Autocross (dry) Kumho XS Autocross (wet) Dunlop Star Spec Braking (dry) BF Goodrich G-Force KDW (5th place overall) Braking (wet) Hankook Ventus V12 EVO Skidpad (dry) Kumho XS (3rd place overall) Skidpad (wet) Hankook Ventus V12 EVO (2nd place overall) Lowest sound level: Bridgestone Potenza RE760 (4th place overall) Lightest tire: Yokohama S.Drive (6th place overall) Best overall tire: Dunlop Star Spec Biggest shocker of the test: Kumho wet performance: so bad it was described as "nothing short of diabolical....when they let go, there was a long, hairy slide before recovery, and the point at which they would give up is impossible to predict..." Others: Falken Azenis RT-615 (7th place overall) Nitto Invo (8th place overall) Ling Ling L688 (9th and last place overall) There you have it; Now let's get those Dunlops and rock! |
