I have Bridgestone Potenza RE730's. Excellent dry and wet traction. Not noisy like the original GS-C's. The hold their grip very well for autocross and track days.

I looked at some bridgestones today as well as some goodyear. The guy wanted to cut me a deal on the yoko's. I am not sure what to get. I should be getting the car sometime this week or next and it will need some tires. the front two are still the original and the back has been replaced with some cheepo tires.

Make sure you check out the prices at Tire Rack before you buy. Some places like Discount Tire will match Tire Rack prices, but you can't beat the service from Tire Rack. I got my tires in 2 days!

I love the Yokohamas. I've run the AVS Intermediate and AVS Sports. I would run the A520s on stock wheels. Great tires. :yesnod:

My friend Greg bought some from them and got great service. THe only problem was that it cost alot to have them put on. By the time he paid for the balancing ect, it cost him more than the local place wanted.
