Hahaha I also quite anti Bridgestone for many2 years! Only this RE003 tempts me to try but alas got no size that I need that time. But now comes out the Hankooks which are so far even cheaper, maybe I will never try the Bridgestone anyway.RE-003 ok mah! and got many better but only thing is expensive......hhahahhaha
High profile econo tire of course should be comfortable or else they're just a useless piece of rubber!
I also did not try BS yet. Almost use the RE-001, but my size was Made in Thailand, where other sizes were from Japan and it was more expensive than the Yokos I was using, so I gave it a miss.....Hahaha I also quite anti Bridgestone for many2 years!

That's the main reason I'm quite anti BS, the prices! Seems not worth it especially when they review results are also so-so only.I also did not try BS yet.

Yoko AE-50 are Eco mid tyres. Even CPC2 with AA traction are mid tyres only. If your friend priorities are more into performance and cornering he needs UHP tyres, like Conti CSC range or Yoko S-Drive
Hey vr2turbo, it'll be awesome if you or your friend can chip in with some reviews
very true, but somehow these more mainstream AE50 tyres seem to compliment the hatch better.Wow, from AD-08R to AE-50, many category down.....
Got one time I switch from GY Asy to the Blue Streak Stiletto, had fun sliding that tyre around but in the wet it was scary until later on, switch back to Asy2.....lolEasier to wheel spin and slide.
Yeah on certain roads, which I suspect is likely due to the squarer profile of the AD08R when in 225/40 on a 18x8
