Tires BRIDGESTONE or DUNLOP
I bought a set of alloys and Bridgestone blizzaks for £250 and drove round my neighbour who was stuck with his Audi A1 Quattro.
I’ve got a set of Bridgestone Turanza (215/45/17) what a fabulous tyre. I do 300km a week in all weathers and I’m really impressed with the feel especially in the wet. I’ve done 40,000km so far and they’re wearing really well.
I put 90k on my original Dunlop tires, and will just be replacing them now. Great tires!
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.
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.
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.
16k miles and I’m down to 6/32 secs with my Weatherpeaks.
What I have observed is - when I go beyond 100 kmph, I sense vibrations from the tires. I did not face this while I was on my factory 19" tires (Goodyear tires). This was not a one-time thing, on different road conditions, different temperatures, I felt the same vibrations when the speed goes beyond 100-105 kmph. I think it is because of the tires, I can also sense the vibrations on my steering wheel.
I got Alenza 275 50/22r as OEM and they are terrible in even the lightest snow. My car is a 2024 escalade ESV 4WD, which should be able to handle light snow, but yesterday I was cornering at 10mph I lost control of the car on 4WD, with probably 1/5 inch of snow on the ground.
