Tires BRIDGESTONE or Kumho
The Bridgestone is going to be faster. The nankang would probably wear a little bit better call and is more heat tolerant. But not as fast when cold, and also heavier. If you were happy with the Bridgestone I would have to say probably stay there
I have them on my ND2 and they're legitimately better than the stock summer bridgestones.
these tires well, may be worth the price. and after today, I've decided to keep them for the next round of tires. definitely not overkill. i would have been in a ditch today if i didn't have the traction i needed. i almost slid off the road 3 times, and that's a positive given the road conditions.
I have them on my 2016 forester 2.5. I live in the middle of Indiana so for half of the year it rains somewhat regularly. Personally, I think the tire is great. I have made turns too quickly while the roads were wet and didn't slide around at all. Accelerating and braking, i consider the traction to be very good in all conditions.
My mother drives her Hyundai i20 on Bridgestone Weather Control A005 and is happy with them.
I use Bridgestone Weatherpeaks on my 2018 Forester but I live in the east coast of Canada.
I'm running Bridgestone Potenza. I've gone through two sets of Micheline Pilot Sports within 25k miles. I'm hoping these Bridgestones last longer. In terms of performance I don't notice a difference between the two.
I had a Mazda 6 that came fitted with Bridgestone Turanza. I got 4 years and 90,000km from those. I then fitted Potenza and got 2.5 years and 32,000km before they were gone.
Kumho’s no idea what type of Kumho. But they’re absolutely terrible.
I know someone who had a blow out running his RE-71R's in the winter, apparently
