Default New Tires
I just had some new tires, Bridgestone Potenza S-04s. I only drove it from the installer back to the house, but what a great difference. I replaced some Goodyear F1 Asymmetricas. Overall, the Goodyears were okay. They did really well in the rain, which is why I bought them. They did flat spot after a very short time of sitting.

So far the Bridgestones are a nice improvement.

New tires are good. Report back after some miles please. Been thinking about these as alternative to a couple of other tires.
