These's all-season Pirelli europhina runflats on the MINI have got to go. I'm torn between two tires.
In the right hand corner we have the
Bridgestone Potenza RE760
320 AA
$124 each on Tirerack
In the left hand corner we have the
Yokohama S Drive
300 AA A
$99 a piece
I drive about 15,000 miles a year, which pulls me towards the Potenzas for the slightly higher treadwear rating. The Potenzas are also much better reviewed on Tirerack. I also had the old RE050 on my Z4 and I liked the tire a lot. But... the Yokos are rated as a bit grippier and they are $100 less for the set.
So are the Potenzas worth the extra money?
