Drove for 18440 km and tire still remains more then 50% tread. Even wear.

I've had these tires on my car for just over a year now. Usually tires last a year on my car the way I drive but these still have half their tread left so I expect to get at least another 6 months out of them.
I've had no real problems with dry grip although I noticed they do slide out earlier compared to when I had Continental.
Wet grip is ok but I don't push it when wet as I don't have total confidence with these. I learnt my lesson to ease off rather than be a test pilot as once when I had Michelin PS2 I spun around on a wet roundabout and found myself facing the wrong way.
Overall these tires are ok if you can get them cheap but I'd rather put in a little bit more cash and stick with the Continentals. I've tried every premium brand and found the Continentals to be the best. Although I haven't tried every tread pattern and there are a few new tires on the market now. I probably will buy Bridgestone again in the future but only when they release a new tread pattern. In the mean time I think I'll stick with Conti.
I have to say though I am impressed that these have lasted longer than other brands.

These were original fit, and have done 34000 miles, just thinking of replacing now or in the near future - I must be a different sort of driver than most on here, but still don't try to overtake me if I think you are being cheeky. The Bridgestones are poor, just not resilient enough, confirming my worst fears about runflats and the idiots at BMW who condemn you to using them. I've done 8000 miles with some Pirelli Sottozero Winter tires, also runflat of course and with the same premium, but which I am tempted to keep on for summer, as they are so much quieter (no thumping on poor surfaces), and offer so much more surefooted roadholding. Don't try to get past me on a roundabout on these, though I wouldn't dare be assertive on the Bridgestones, unless they were very warm and the tarmac absolutely dry.
Your collective wisdom hasn't convinced me what to buy next, which is my current question. I usually like Michelin, as I've been in their factories and seen how meticulous they are, but they seem to leave high speed rated BMW runflats to others, regrettably.

After 18,000 miles front tires are still above 50% and rear about 80%, dry grip is superb although slightly noisy but wet grip is dissapointing for a high performance tire.

had these come with the Gtd, seemed good for the first two years, front wore out at 14k miles replaced with Michelin pilot sport 3 - which didn't seem to have as much grip in the dry?
Kept potenzas on the back.. one has started to perish - the rubber is breaking up and.. the noise ! the noise is awful they still have 2-4mm tread but sounds awful & vibration and drone coming from them at around 20-50mph. feels like wheel bearing shot.. worse from the one that's splitting up.. they are on the front now but sound really loud..28k on the bridgestones so far - they will be replaced with Dunlop sport maxx rt next week..

Bad durability. I Will try now the conti sportcontact5

I have bought this tires for my Abarth 500. Before I had Pirello P Zero fitted. Nothing bad to say about the Pirelli's, they just did there job. But, after replacing it with this tire, the differences where hugh! The Pirelli's are very, I then I really mean, very stiff. The Bridgestone's are more quiet, softer, but not less sporty. The handling improved a lot! You can feel much more what is going on, the level of sounds was a lot less and the shock absorbtion also improved a lot with this tires!

A definitely buy again tire!

Bought my Evolution with these tires already on the car, with approximately 4mm tread remaining.

Dry / Wet Grip: I have had no issues with regards to grip in the dry or wet (when used as fast road tires)

Road Feedback: I found these tires to be very responsive

Progressiveness: I found the tires to be very predictable at their limits and found that I could keep control of the vehicle easily

Wear: I would say the wear is average, however last 1mm have worn down fairly rapidly, but having said that I have had many "spirited" drives in the car.

Comfort: I enjoy the harder sidewalls of the Bridgstone tires however this comes at the prices of comfort. I also found that the tires produce more noise than I would like them to.

Overall: considering the performance and price of these tires I wail definitely buy these again, and would recommend them to any evo owner!

These tire were OEM on the car when I bought it and had done 6K miles. I have since put on another 6K. Have no issues with the grip in the wet or dry. Reasonable feel to them. My main issue is the noise level coming from the tires at all speeds. Tire rating shows the dB level to be 73 dB which is too loud particularly on a long run up the M5 - very irritating. The fronts are down to 3-4mm after 11,500 miles so they will be replaced soon. Probably go for Goodyear Eagle F1 Asy 2 (70db) as I have had them before and found them to be pretty good.

Have had these on my Audi S3 for 3000 miles now. Driving through a UK winter but amazing how much more feel these offered than my previous Michelin PS3's.

Pushed them on very cold tarmac and quite progressive when they start to go, wear so far very good as well.

Tires are quite subjective but these have made my S3 a lot more rewarding to drive

Came std with my golf 7 GTI. I have rotated them like clockwork and have gotten 40 000km(25000miles) out of them. I have abused these tires in off-road conditions as I go to many music festivals which are hosted on farms (gravel roads, rocky terrain, thick tree roots). No punctures to date. A good all round tire. A bit noisy. Good ride comfort at normal speeds. Would buy again.

After a year of driving on a set of 4 S001's I can honestly say they are a brilliant tire. Plenty of dry grip, great in the wet, handled one winter with a sprinkling of snow well.

25,000 miles in and the fronts need replacing and will be replaced with exactly the same tires.
