Input on Tires
I haven't posted on this forum in a while. I just wanted to get some input. I just ordered Bridgestone Potenza RE760 tires for my 2001 coupe. Believe it or not, I'm still driving with the original Goodyear runflats that came with the car. I was out driving it and I noticed that the inside of the front left tire was bare and I told myself, "OK, time for new tires!"
I wanted to get people who have the RE760's their opinion on them. How do they handle? I'm tired of the "bump steer" that I get with my current tires and I'm looking forward to driving with my new tires.

I just bought the same tires and am curious as well and am having them put on this weekend. I had Michelin Pilots on the car when I bought it, but didn't want to spend over $1K for tires to replace with the same ones. I've heard great things about these Potenza's and my buddy with his Porsche 996 TT has them and loves them.

The original owner of my '02 replaced the Good Year run flats with Potenza's just before I bought it at 25k miles and I have no complaints after 5,000+ miles. Without a comparison my opinion isn't worth much but they are quiet, smooth and do pretty well in the rain. I will strongly consider another set when the time comes.
