Can't wait to see KiwiTT's reaction to this...

The RE050A's are very popular on a lot of expensive euro cars. They are down the list a little bit, but the pole position version is up on top, followed by the Michelin PS2.

There is also another category on the tirerack now for extreme performance tyres which only has 3 types on there at the moment, but they all sound very good.

Not the most accurate of surveys, second lowest miles in the survey.

I've got 275/35/19 RE050A's on the 350Z's rears, and they are sh1t. Only reason they're still on is they were new when we got the car, so still too much tread left - despite me trying hard at Llandow!

Don't buy the bloody things!

Can't entirely agreewith this Bern.. As some tyres can be suited very well to 1 car, but not to another /yes
So if they are as bad as you say they are on the 'Z' I would say, shout out this statement very loudly on the 350z Forum /Hyper

We do... we do... Bridgestone is a swearword over there! OEM on the Z are REO40's - even worse!

The only other bridgestones I've ever tried were the tyres that were on the hearse when it came from japland. Lots of tread, but also no grip - compound hard as nails I suspect.

So that's 3 flavours of bridgestone, none good :thumbsdow

yup mine came with Bridgestones on , no grip and very noisy , my dads Mazda 6 was the same (4000 miles with no tcl sorted that) they must do some very cheap deals with the manufacturers to get their tyres on them
