Steve - you are a star for mentioning these. Just in the market for new tyres and after a call to my local Bridgestone I got quoted $170/tyre + a $100 cashback for 4, so $580 for new shoes 8)

Just got these tyres fitted this arvo & have to say I'm really impressed already!

Grip feels much better & car feels more planted over my Nitto Invo's, well maybe cause I barely had any tread left on em ;)

I got my VRX after this special and it now have new tire but will consider them next time around as I've used Bridgestone on my CC coupe most of the time.

Just a quick question, the size.

I know the stock size is 215/45 on a 7" wide rim. I have after market rims 7.5" wide with 225/40 and the other day when I had them off (to paint the brakes) that the wheel touched the concrete floor when I laid them down. Not struck this before, the tire has always been wider than my wheels.

Can I assume that 235/40 is a better fit but will it fowl the guard or suspension? I did the math as saw it actual brings the other all size in line with the stock tires, less than 1% smaller.

Sorry for the long post.
