I 've just bought a couple of Bridgestones, interesting how they came out 4th overall, and 4th for a front wheel drive Mondeo, but came in second for a C Class.

Interesting.. my personal preference would have been for the michelins, I had a new set of pilot sports on my last car a 535i BMW (is it ok to swear on here) and hey they were magic and fantastic wet or dry, the goodyear F1 I didnt like because of the tread pattern. My S320CDI has a new set of Bridgestones on it and I cant fault them either, and before that a set of pirelli M&S were also excellent..and believe me I do like to drive

Oops just remembered yes the pirellis did roll a bit on the roundabouts. tho normal driving would have avoided this.
