Wet Performance
Amazing grip, tons of confident when entering a curve. The car seems to be on rials. Wet performance is very good, however, rain is not a daily event here so my experience is still limited
What is bad?
Ride is not particularly confortable, but what the heck, I don't want my Seat Leon to behave as a Rolls Royce!
Comments
Huge difference between this tire and previous one (OEM Bridgestone Potenza S001), that I changed after 3,500 kms as one of the Bridgestones got a bubble on a wall. I choose to replace the four of them than buying another S001.

What is good?
Dry Performance
Handling
Price/Quality
Treadwear
Wet Performance
Amazing grip, tons of confident when entering a curve. The car seems to be on rials. Wet performance is very good, however, rain is not a daily event here so my experience is still limited
What is bad?
Ride is not particularly confortable, but what the heck, I don't want my Seat Leon to behave as a Rolls Royce!
Comments
Huge difference between this tire and previous one (OEM Bridgestone Potenza S001), that I changed after 3,500 kms as one of the Bridgestones got a bubble on a wall. I choose to replace the four of them than buying another S001.
