Well I am looking into these tires for a future purchase.
Please leave feedback and reviews on these tires, I would also like to see these on our cars from different angles so pics would be great!

 

I have them. I love them. Good ride, great handling, quieter than OEM, great dry traction, so-so wet traction, good wear so far. Would buy again.

255/40/19 front and 275/35/19 rear.

 

Thanks,
I have heard some good things about them but I don't know of to many people with them on a G. So I am hoping to get some more feedback and some pics, I was thinking about 275/35 for the rear and 245/40 for the front.

 

Yes I like them a lot so far. I put the wrong sizes in my first post (I always do that!) You could also go 285/35 on the rear on OEM tires with no problem. I wanted to but they weren't in stock when I purchased.

In my photo album Black Betty pictures 1-9 are on these tires.

 

For feedback and reviews, go to tirerack.com.

Also, fwiw, compare them to the Bridgestone RE050A Pole Positions. Not the RE050A which are Factory Sport stock, but the Pole Positions which are the next generation for the same price and with double the life expectancy (while TireRack shows their life expectancy to be 140, same as the stock tires, I think this is a misprint because Bridgestone shows the life expectancy to be 280).

Also, the Pole Positions are available in both the stock (assuming the 19" sport wheels) 225/45 fr 245/40 rr as well as the Plus Zero 245/40 fr 275/35 rr. If your dealer is one who nitpicks everything in an attempt to avoid warrantying your car (like mine), you might be more comfortable sticking with the stock sizing.

 

BUMP

Have these tires and love them... Wet/Dry traction is on par with the overpriced Bridgestone RE050A's our Sport models come with....

10/10 IMO....

 

Are these tires quiet?

 

Yup... Quieter then the OEM Bridgestones IMO... Even with the bigger sizes....

 

Just to clarify my earlier post, a TireRack comparison between the S-drives and the RE050A's does show the S-drives to be better in the wet, virtually equal in the dry, more comfortable and quieter. BUT, when compared to the Pole Positions, the S-drives lag far behind in all catagories.

Since Pole Positions are the same price as the RE050A's, no one (in their right mind) would actually replace the stock RE050A's with new RE050A's when, for the same price, they could get Pole Positions.

Bottom line, per the TireRack survey, the Pole Positions are noticeably superior to either the stock RE050A's or the S-drives. But, the Pole Positions are more expensive than the S-drives.

To the OP, if performance/quality is the issue, knowing more performance/quality costs more money, the Pole Positions win. If cost/value is the issue, then S-drives probably win. The consumer has to decide what his/her budget is.

To some, the additional performance/quality of the Pole Positions is worth the additional price. To others, not.

 

anyone have a comparison between these and falken fk452's?

im thinking about getting these for my next set, but i love my 452s.

 

I guess the only reason why one would go with the plus zero sizing is due to the fact that the OEM tires 225/45/19 and 245/40/19 are only available with the Bridgestone Potenza's and the Nitto Invos (although Nitto recommends a 7.5 inch rim in the front for the 225's). I can't find any other manufacturer carrying the 225/45/19's.

 

besides what you mentioned, these come in that size also.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar

Goodyear Eagle RS-A

Pirelli PZero Nero

 

^^ You are right about the the Goodyear Eagle RS-A's coming in both of our stock sizing but not about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar or the Pirelli PZero Nero (as neither come in our rear OEM size of 245/40/19)

 

Are you guys experiencing less noise with S. Drive in 20s compare to the OEM 19s? I just got my Yoko 20s on and on the hwy it sounds more noisy. Sounds like a hollow barrel being rolled around.

 

a buddy of mine says they're louder than he'd like them to be, but the last tires he had were Invo's, which are very very quiet. I have the Vredesteins, and they are quieter than the Bridgestones.
