Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Specs and Review

Well said.

As far as my opinion on the RE050A's, I believe they are great tires. I had them on my G35 Coupe for 3 years (OEM tires on the OEM 19's).

Believe it or not, I got 25,000 miles out of them. And this is including 100+ drag runs and atleast 15 canyon runs.

My only complaint about them is that they are loud compared to other tires out there.

The RE050A Pole Positions also seem to be an upgrade over the standard RE050A's.

There's a reason why these tires are on many supercars and exotic cars out there.

If you want the BEST all around tire you can get (max performance tire), you would have to opt for the PS2's. But they will cost you an arm and a leg; as if the RE050A's aren't expensive enough

The PS2's offer the same dry weather performance, if not better, with a superior ride quality and superior wet traction.

Another thing to note is the fact for 19 inch rims, you will be limited to a few max performance tires out there. There are some great performance tires for 18's that are not made for 19" rims. That might change in the future since so many manufactures are placing 19's on their sports cars.
