These are supposed to be a "made by Bridgestone" tyre. That being the case, I would be happy to try them.

Anyone used these things, and has comments (good or bad).

yeah had them on the rear of my R33 N/A (235/17's)

were really quite good in the dry but seemed to slide really easy in the wet (but predictable n controllable).

not sure if i would have liked them on a 200hpatw+ GTST... Depends what size you are going for too i guess. If you are going for a 255 or 265 then the grip is going to be better for the turbo application...

Good budget tyre. I emphasize the word budget tho. U get what you pay for.

Hey Justin How are you?

Yeah i remember those tyres, when i bought them from bob jane the guy told me the same thing that they were made by bridgestone and the tread pattern reduces road noise.

I drive very slow lol so they worked alright.

But as Justin Said they are good budget tyres.

that wont mean they are good, just that they probably wont blow out on u lol

a lot of the cheap brands are "made by big name companies" as its a big market they want a part of, but dont want to associate their name with because they are made on the cheap.

it depends what car they are going on, if they are going on a skyline id have to ask why buy a performance car if you're going to make it perform poorly by cheaping out on tyres. if its a shitter daily then fair enough lol

Thanks for the feedback, guys.

They'll be going on the R32 GTS4 - 235/45x17s. As you can see from the panel at left, I've done the RB25 upgrade, so there is a bit more punch than your ordinary GTS4.

If they're a bit sus in the wet, maybe better to spend a few more $$$ for brand-name.

you mention GTS4 n RB25 so im assuming you mean non-turbo and awd.

In which case, i think they would be fine. That is if you are on a budget. Otherwise always spend more n get better.

But if it is a price range thing and also going on a non-turbo i think you will be plenty satisfied. They hung on just fine in my R33 N/A.

N even though not massive outright grip they are very predictable. Which is worth its weight in gold if you ask me(i come from a biking background)

R32GTS4 = turbo mate.

He's probably got a swap from a 25stag using maybe a GTR gearbox.

Ended up paying a few $$ extra and fitted Falken 912s (replacing Falken 326s)

All good then.
