Re: Has anyone tried Bridgestone Potenza RE750's Posted by Dan [Email] (#2459) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Dan) on Mon, 3 Mar 2008 09:45:03 In Reply to: Has anyone tried Bridgestone Potenza RE750's, Leif Åke, Sun, 2 Mar 2008 23:12:26 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have owned a set of RE750's for 2 years now. They have only 15000 miles on them, but I don't drive my car every day. Trust me, they are plenty rigid to handle the weight for a C900. I am running 210/16/50's on a set of super aero rims. I have found that they have wonderful wet capabilities, and if you leave them on year-around (and live in a place that gets a dusting of snow once or twice a year) you really don't need to spend the money on a second set of all-seasons. The wear is acceptable, considering they are designed to be very tacky. My advice is to religiously rotate them to mainain good tread life. I have also found that in addition to the tires, moving my battery to the trunk has made the front to back balance of the car a bit better and have noticed that the tires on the front don't wear as much I thought they would have.
Downside: These are meant to be driven. If you need to parallel park on a daily basis, you will trash these tires in no time.
