Bridgestone Potenza Sport vs Goodyear Eagle Touring — Compared

“1-week review: So far loving the tire. Only a touch noisier to my ear. (Granted I am running serious all terrain tires on my Jeep that absolutely roar, so my noise tolerance likely higher than most) More responsive than the MXM4, with exception of initial turn into corners where I get the sense the sidewall is a bit softer - though it's so slight I could be imagining it. Though these tires were found to be harsher over bumps than others in their group, they feel considerably more compliant than my worn MXM4s. Too early to say on range hit. Happy so far.”

“I have the Bridgestone Potenza sport on the car for some 1000 Km. Previously i had the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 fitted. I LOVE the bridgestone. The grip is better, the steering is a little bit more exact but the best is, the damping of the Bridgestone fits my stock S2000 perfect and the tire is not to sensitive for tire pressure. It give a better feel around corners. Will buy them again. Dont see any reason to buy or test a annother tire.”

“Hey Mike: Yeah I just looked at the Continentals you mentioned. That is the same size tire on my 24 Hell Cat Durango ! Interesting. So I went to the Costco website and checked out that size. They don't sell continental , but I was looking at the all-season4 Michelin Pilot. That size has the UTQG: 540, and says 45K mileage warranty. No doubt pro-rated warranty, I'd say. $501 each, that includes mount & Balance, but I have a $16 tire disposal fee for NC. They have a $80 rebate on four right now too. Costco, has some Bridgestone Potenza sport AS but they get noisy as they wear. I had a QX56 that came with those tires , and they were whining pretty good at 16K. I don't recommend them. Sort of like goodyears. And they also have the run flat Pirellis . Scorpion All season Run -flat UTQG of 600 but I bet that is noisy! $583 ! They are very proud of them LOL yeah Mike, if you have doubts, get the Michelins and be done with it. That's what I do when I have conflict on tire decisions, usually more expensive, but I am not ever disappointed with the Michelins . That' just me. I'll have to look and see what the next bigger size of the tire that will fit our rim. have a good one!”
