Consumer Reports. November 2006.

 

where's the BFG KDWS?

 

You should check out the new Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Position

 

I have these tires and they are fantastic. Better than the RE040s in every way except sidewall stiffness.

That chart is basically useless because it's "all season" tires, not the Ultra-High Performance category that most of our tires fall into. Those are the tires that you'd use on your Maxima or Altima, not the Z.

 

I believe they are classified as summer performance. Correct?

 

One of our members asked specifically about performance all-season. I posted the test rests without a recommendation as to whether these tires are suitable or not.

I value objective comparative testing by a trusted source. Other members might value a post such as: I got Acme 1000X tires and they are really good.

 

Don't forget the G35 coupe

Sorry, couldn't help it when I noticed the factory tires on them at my tire shop.

BTW, I think consumer reports is a bunch of idiots after seeing that tread life rating they gave the Michelin Energy MXV4s.

 

If posted in response to a question, then why not post in the thread that asked the question?

Some people will see that chart and think "Ooo, I'll get some of those for my Z" for which they probably will be inappropriate.

While we all appreciate the post, it's deceptive in it's content without a caveat.

 

Incorrect. The WS is for Wet/Snow. They're in the Ultra High Performance All Season category. KILLER (the K) tire for the money. I ran them on the Cobra and I've got them on the Z now.

 

G-Force T/A KD = Dry summer tires
G-Force T/A KDW = Dry and Wet
