MY BRAND NEW TIRES S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Kenny on  Tue Aug 27 19:17 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Hi,

After many months of researching the various tires for my P195/60VR15 Pirelli P6000 Sport Velocite replacement, I finally brought a brand new set of P195/60HR15 Bridgestone Potenza RE950 High-Performance all-season tires this afternoon.

So far, I love it. Of course, I haven't tested its abilities quite yet, as
my Dad suggested that I should allow new tires to wear in for a few km before
pushing it. My Dad, who was with me, find that he feel more of those potholes
on the roads with my last set of Pirelli tires.

It seems to handle corners and brake better than my P6000 Sport Velocites.
It definitely stick to the road ( like glue ) better than my Pirelli. The main reason why I fell in love with the tire was its tread pattern. If I don't tell, I could get away saying it is a " summer-only " tire. My tire
dealer told me this set of tire is a semi-directional tire, whatever that mean.
All I know is that it has to install in one direction only.

If you want to know, I got a really good deal on them. I paid less than $620
(Cdn) for a set of 4, including taxes, etc ...

I have posted pictures of it on my website. My website is:
