After 4 mcach buying tires had a bulge. Apparently the fault of the Polish roads, but what kind of tire which falls after all this time? When the day is covering perhaps 25 km :)

I already have a second set of Bridgestone RE050A and I'm happy so far. Excellent on dry, good grip oon fast corners and great traction. Aquapalning is almost impossible, you have to try really hard to lose the grip- really good. The only drawback is a grip on wet in really cold days but it's not dangerous, all in all it's good.Due to the hard rubber you can hear them and feel the road inequalities. When it comes to durability I give them 5 stars, because I have done about 25 000 miles, as a HP tyres it is a good score. They are good for people who drives mainly on sharp corners and likes speeding. I like it- that is why I'm satisfied. Bridgestone Potenza RE050A- for me one of the best.

Tire in time matched to the car. No defects not discovered, but I have no comparison with others in the car.

Very good tires. Excellent for different types of surfaces. Low rolling resistance, behave well on sharp corners, good lateral support, without slip on wet surfaces, they can be considered a little noisy, but at sizes above 19 inches rather normal. I would recommend 100%.

I have used this brand and model of tyre on my Volvo V70R for the last 4 years and am very pleased with them. They are a price competitive tyre and I have no complaints at all. The raised rim protection feature helps protect my alloy wheels from parking too close to kerb.

Great tyre, exceptional grip, if I didn't know better, I'd think I had Michelin Ps2's. Exceptional tyres (note these were manufactured in Japan - I have heard that others are made elsewhere such as Poland - attain lower ratings in reviews).
