My experience with the Bridgestone RE 90AS tyres wasn’t a great one. At first they were amazing in terms of grip and loose surfaces but after the tread wore away by over 25% things started to get a bit sketchy. They really need warming up before you depend on them as well. I switched to a Michelin A/S 4 on my Audi Quattro (AWD) and found them to be a lot better throughout the life of the tyre rather than just at the start. Another problem with the Bridgestone’s is just how loud they are…. from the beginning they were annoying to say the least and it just got worse as they wore away.

Very happy with my RE 988 sat under my BMW 3 Series – handles well in all seasons

With over 50 thousand kilometres racked up on my Potenza Plus’s I think its safe to say they are good value for money. They have loads of grip on the road and are quiet. At first they were near silent BUT as they lost a bit of the outside tread the noise increase but nothing to cry about
