Default Bridgestone Adrenalin RE001

Has anyone fitted these tyres to their cars or have done the move from S03's to the new RE001? (Please dont post if you've used some other brand, like to keep this a Bridgestone related thread)

Yeah I got them fitted about a month ago, they are very good and seem to hold very well in this wet weather we are having now.

They are replacing the G3 & S03 range

What price were the RE001's? They are meant to be cheaper than the S03's.

At the moment they are cheaper than the G3 & S03 but once the special intro price finishes it will be priced somewhere in between both of them.

in 235/40-18 the S03 was $455 vs $340 for the RE001 the G3 was just over $400 from memory

I really like the S03's and having lost them and having to go to a falkin based tyre that came with my car... ummm its well really scary grip wise!

Fair few people still recommending S-03 as the premium range for bridgestone..

yeh i got told to go the S-03's cause they (companys) had heard what they are like / performe. alot of places could not comment about the re001's cause a) they had not head of them and b) cause they didnt know anything about them
i was really picky when i was lookin for a tyre and was tossin up between these and the toyo R-1's but for the price i could not justify the R-1's
if you want grip (which is wat i was after) then i would suggest the RE001's
