Sorry for potentially a boring thread. My car needs 2 rear tyres, the fronts are near new Bridgstone Potenza RE 050, so want to fit Bridgstones agin on the rear.
The current tyres are Bridgstone Potenza RE050A 265x35x19xY and have give me a sure footed 20K miles(!). I don't think these are 'N' rated, something I'm not fussed about.
Looking on the 'net, it seems there is a new tyre, same size, but called the Bridgstone Potenza Sport.
Rated A for wet grip (RE050 are C) and better on fuel, B instead of C, so reads like the Sport is a good tyre, and £20 or so cheaper even.
Before getting them, any comments please?
Thanks, Graham.
