Tires BRIDGESTONE or FEDERAL
Mine came w the Bridgestones - Potenza S0005 - they are excellent. Grip is so good that w UHP all seasons on the difference in grip is really noticeable - this car has such high limits/power that the difference is significant. Yes, the Bridgestones are noisy, especially on the highway.
I used to have BT-023s, unlike many here I thought they were fine (and better than the BT-021s I had before). But yeah, *looooong* warm-up time...
I have BT023s on my old Triumph, on my second set now and my choice is extremely limited due to the rare tyre size it has! Never had any problems with them, rode through last winter on them and they were 100%.
One word from a senior Minnesotian
Bridgestone (Blizzacks) premium Winter Tire Possibly around the same price but superior in every way.
I don't understand what the noise complaints are about, honestly. I didn't notice anything different from my stock turanzas.
They're the best tires i've ever owned.
I’d go with Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultras. They are solid in all types of weather, quiet, and absorb bumps in the road very well. I have them on my cx9 and plan to put them on my wife’s cx50 when the time comes. I’ve been very impressed by them.
I run Pilot Sports on my 2015 6 GT, and they are noiseless. FAR better than original Bridgestones, and last well.
They replaced it with a Bridgestone SureDrive Touring.
I had blizzaks for a few seasons after a set of very good dunlops. I was severely dissatisfied in the e blizzak performance. Not only did they wear quickly but they were awful in the snow and dry. We have X-ices on the Tiguan and they are far superior to the blizzaks.
I have a ‘99 Fireblade with a 16” front wheel rather than the 17” which is normal now. It is more likely to shake its head when going over a bump, banked over at high speed. It is also difficult or impossible to recover from a front wheel slide which would be recoverable on other bikes.
