I'm recommending Bridgestone RE050A tyres to everyone who wants to purchase good quality and durability tyres in reasonable price. They are really good in terms of durability and also they look great. They work fine on dry and wet surface. It's the second set that I have. Due to my huge mileage I've chosen this particular model. The only drawback is a noise. I'll recommend them regardlessly anything.

Absolutely no complaint whatsoever in any driving style with dry weather. Sticking to the road. Something worse with wet weather, but that should not have a name

After trying Pirelli P Zero and Michelin Pilot Sport 3 I confirm that this is a top rubber especially curve

Very nice tyre, whose natural habitat is the highway.

I think that the tyre is great. I’ll start with a disadvantage, which is a remarkable weakening of comfort. Driving on unevenness is sometimes very uncomfortable despite switching the suspension on comfort mode! There are also advantages of that fact. The car holds well by fast wheel moves, during hard breaking with ABS on I managed to miss a suddenly changing lane car! On wet, they lose the grip very late, on dry it’s obvious, because they are Bridgestone. Earlier, I had Bridgestones included to my Almera (but probably worse type and all-season’s) which was a tragedy. I sold them after 2 months, because I didn’t even want them to keep ‘just in case’ because they were dangerous. This model restored my trust for that brand. But it’s too rigid for me, so I’m changing for Continental Premium Contact 2 or Pirelli Cinturato p7 and I want a higher profile. If someone likes aggressive driving and hard safe suspension, then I recommend, but if someone has originally hard suspension, then for our roads I’d think about it. If we had German roads, I would probably stayed with those tyres.

Driven about 8 thousand km. I see wear. The tyre is very quiet no plague of teething and met eg Dunlop SportMaxx where the tyre was unbearably loud. Bridgestone is a high quality. Tyres endure a lot. 190HP is not enough that the tyres be surrendered. I am very pleased. Excellent handling + comfort.

Resistance very well, looks so se, I have no objection in general, a good tyre for a good price, a tyre mounted on Honda Civic page (at least that was some time ago). After the postponement of winter tyres feel a clear difference, the car smokes less about half a liter (1.6 110HP), on the road, you can go below 6 liters which is not bad I think. I recommend!
