Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position UHP Summer 265/40R18 101Y XL Passenger Tire

Great tires for those who live in heavy rain states, but want awsome handling performance. Rain comes down in buckets here in alabama, but these tires I have had no issue with hydroplaning. I replaced some nitto invos with these. These have about same water performance as the invos which both tires in my book are the top two currently on the market. Way better than even the pirelli p-zero. As for dry performance, they was a little soft on cornering when first installed. After 1,000 miles they seated in good and dont feel like they shifted some in heavy cornering. Tread life has been really good so far even under daily abuse in the corners. For road noise, the wider setup I have 20"x11" 285 30 20 in the rear is some noisy. quieter than the P-zero, but louder than the Invos. The 255 30 20 in the front is not even noticeable. Overall a awsome tire, and holding up well. More road noise than the invos but longer treadlife with same A+++ performance wet and dry. Almost forgot the thing that sold me on these. I have a slight negative camber on my rear tires with them being as big and wide as they are. These tires have a harder, more protective inner sidewall that protects for just this problem. The invos and p-zeros dont have this and wear out much faster on inside tread. This definetly works, as my inner tread has held up beautifully so far. There are markings on the tire which tell the side that goes on the inside of the rim and the outside. make sure installer gets this right. The tires arent dirrectional, so they can be rotated on staggered setups.
