I just got a set of the new RE71RS and they were great for the one day I ran them. My times were on par with a set of old maxxis rc1 slicks.
Stock tires from 2023 Golf R, the car was delivered on 1/20/23 with 7 miles on the odometer and I put on another 20 miles to the tire shop to swap them for all-seasons. Tires are like new with less than 30 miles.
They’re a brilliant tire, and I can’t imagine the Defenders being superior to the intended use. Basing that off extensive experience with the old LTX MS2’s, which were also great. I guess my point is **Bridgestone is making really good tires right now**.
I was a fan of Bridgestones, had some turanza Serenities on my mk5 and before that my old 960 wagon.
Dramatically better traction, specifically when driving through parking lots that were plowed, but now there's 2-4 inches of loose snow you have to go through. Just driving out of the parking lot after installation I had way way better grip.
It's like going from 30% grip to 80% grip.
The improved snow traction is amazing. Living in Minnesota I will never put a tire without the 3Peak Mountain Snowflake Symbol on a car I own again
Bridgestone Driveguards if you want RFTs. driveguards are near silent unless you're in dire need of suspension work
Bridgestone Blizzaks or Michelin Crossclimate 2’s.
I got 4 weatherpeak tires brand new in august of this year. I have driven 15,000+ miles with them already and I love them. But my tires are at a 5/32nds all the way around , even with rotating every 5,000 miles. What is causing them to wear so quickly?
That model Bridgestone tires is terrible in winter. Traction goes away below 45°. Wet weather is a challenge to say the least. I took them off and put on continental DWS tires at 10,000 miles.
