Bridgestone A001 165/45 R14 Toyota Yaris 3,000 miles May 31, 2015
After reading the reviews here I decided to fit them to my yaris, to replace the mixed junk that was on the car. Easily the best tyre I have ever driven on, transformed my Yaris into something thats fun to drive! Fantastic levels of grip with a good sidewall that doesn't fold under very hard cornering. Noise level when I first put them on was shockingly loud but this has toned down after a couple of thousand miles of hard driving. Superb dry stopping distance and a good wet weather performance. Can't comment on wear as I have only done 3k on them.
There that good my mate who's been 30 years in the car trade asked what I was running after borrowing the car and purchased some for his car!
Spent ages reading reviews and went with these, hoping the top reviews for this tyre were on the money and not written for money and it's safe to say these reviews are correct.
Brilliant tyres.
