Other than that I was happy with the tire. Ran it on a '97 Jetta (in NW PA).
Here's what a 245/40-17 Bridgestone RE11 looks like after 18mths on the R - over 200 autox runs and 8k street miles. I run 40-44 PSI hot on a well setup car. Note that there's minimal indication of excessive scrub or rollover. These tires are wearing great and were good enough for top pax time in a 60 car field at a recent local event
I just put on Bridgestone RE760 Sport's on my car about 250km's ago. I was looking for exactly what you are, good treadlife and good all-around performance for the occasional track day... I cannot say enough good things about this tire, it meets and exceeds all expectations that i have had thus far; and with 340 treadwear i expect these 205/40's to last for a good amount of time. You can't go wrong with this tire!
After seeing the performance of Pirelli in WRC, and some of the direct massive pothole shots my OE Pirellis have taken, I'm impressed with them
As far as the Bridgestone tires, I have ran them for 2 years and they have been an excellent all season tire. They do everything well and easily beat the factory tires.
I've been happy with my Pirell P-Zero Nero M+S... Good in cold, wet, slush, muck and even a few inches of snow... very good in the dry too.
My original Pirelli's were loud after 10K miles. I couldn't wait to get rid of them. The Yoko's are very quiet with exceptional handling characteristics.
The P Zero Neros were not that great in snow, so unless the Falkens are spinning in thier tracks I can't imagine a great improvement there.
Our egg came with Wranglers. They were so noisy and rode so harshly that I replaced them with Bridgestone Dueler Alenzas at 800 miles. Love the new Bridgestones!
i have the bridgestone potenza RE050A's.. came on my huffs stock...i need new ones on the front allready! with a 140 treadware rating they burn down quick!
