Hi,

I have a G37x coupe running staggered on Bridgestone Potenza re050a. My rears (275/35/19) are due for replacement while my fronts (245/40/19) still have a lot of meat on them so I'm looking to replace just the rears for now.

I don't want to spend $650 to get 2 new Potenza re050a's for my rear so I'm looking to get either the 275/35/19 Bridgestone Potenza RE760 or the Bridgestone Potenza S-04 for the rears.

Is it ok to run different tread patterns between fronts and rears on the g37x, at least until my fronts are due for replacement?

Thanks in advance.

 

Since you're planning on sticking w/ Bridgestone I'd shoot a PM to Neal@Tirerack he's very helpful and knows that lineup real well.
I would think it would be OK as long as the new tires have a similar treadware rating (so the tires would have similar compounds). Best to go to the source.

 

Thanks blnewt! Just sent him a PM.
