Nice review! I have a bmw 120 xdrive (F20) and I think that it can only go on run flat. Do you think the ranking you made in the article will be similar with those type of tyres? The car came with Bridgestone potenza (former generation): they are not bad (of corse it’s not a car for the racetrack and on the road the performance is more than enough), but they feel a bit stiff (the size doesn’t help either … /40 at the front and /35 on the rear).

The Next Of My Request : A TIRE BRAND COMPETITION A TIRE BRAND WAR

[@Andre-eo9io]

Firstly: I am an automotive technician. I have an AMG C450 and have run my stock Pirelli run-flats for a while now, and they have literally been worn to the wire. I just bought a set of Pilot Sport 4s and absolutely LOVE them. I honestly didn't actually realize how much quality tires made a difference (as I don't drive customer cars nearly as aggressive as my own), but have concluded that the extra money is entirely worth it, for the more spirited driver. 100% recommend 4s for anyone looking to have track tires on the street, as they are very capable in dry & wet performance! My car really does feel entirely different on there, to my surprise. 🙌

[@AndiSabin]

I'd pick the Goodyear, because the Rear Left regenerates tread. I'll just rotate the tires after each track session and have infinite tread :))

[@sam5605]

Is this joke? How is that possible

[@synapticbit]

The right rear picked up rubber from the track, there wasn’t enough wear to negate what was essentially melted rubber left on the pavement. It is a joke btw… Firstly, The rubber that it did pick up would not come close to the amount of wear that was happening. Secondly, if it did, it’s isn’t good solid rubber that would actually provide appreciable grip. Thirdly, because of how it came to the tire, it would most likely scrub off extremely quickly anyways.

What a brilliant video, I'm trying to choose between these tyres for my ND MX5 which I track occasionally. This video was exactly what I needed.

[@AndY1ksi]

I have a 2019 ND2 2.0 MX5 with 70.000+ kms driving fast down the Croatian Adriatic road almost every weekend (410 kms of fun in one direction), fitted with Michelin Pilot SuperSport. I was thinking of going to Potenza Sport afterwards, but I guess not ;) Michelin PSS also have 1.5 cms wider thread than the OEM Potenza S001 at the same tire size (205/45/17).

[@tailsneon556]

For the ND. The hot setup is to move from the 205/45/17 to a 215/45/17 Global Cup size. I run the PS4S and after one track day and some street driving. They're night and day better than the stock Bridgestones.

[@jamesthomson3511]

I've got an NC MX-5 and am aware lots of people change the tyre size to 215 rather than 205 and am interested. How does it benefit the drive and how different do tyre pressures need to be?

[@Guenounovitch]

Lol track car 🚗 until the gearbox breaks like glass like mine

[@TheMx5Channel]

Not exacly the same, i drive a NC with 205/45/17 Pilot Sport 4 (not S) great for track/road and does very well in the rain. And i have a second set 225/45/17 Michelin Cup 2's those are even better, but a little bit less grip in the rain but still more then most other non-semi slick tyre.

[@jonfenton8146]

The Potenza is a cheat tyre. I ran a couple of sets on a new new civic type R. I deduced that they were dual compound. They gave astounding grip for the first 1,500 miles then lost about 75% of the traction and thereafter would last forever on the harder inner compound. Your tests show rapid initial wear which corroborates this. If you ran all three full term you would find it would have a similar or better overall range. Once you were through the grippy soft layer on the Potenza you could see a line at each edge of the tyre which was the difference in compound

[@gazman9468]

I'm beginning to believe this too. Michelin do it with the Cup 2R but at least they're honest about them turning into Cup 2's after a few fast laps. On the other hand my Potenza Sports turned to scrap after one track day which was most certainly not advertised.

[@frankbov9266]

I've been unable to stop watching; these are some of the best tire/tyre evaluations I've seen anywhere. Watching this test, I noted that tire pressures were held equal at 2.5 bar, even though the tires were riding up the sidewalls in the corners. In my experience, tire design differences can require very different air pressure to achieve optimum performance. I suggest marking sidewalls during warm up, and adjusting tire pressure until they no longer roll past the edge of the tread at the limit. This will also reveal the need for a front-rear pressure difference that's roughly equal to the car's front-rear weight balance. SOP at track days I've attended.

[@robert7622]

These reviews are only useful if you have the exact same car, drive the exact same track, with the exact same track temperature with the exact same level of rubber on track. IE unless. Comfort and ride noise would be more useful.

[@Melodic_Cellar]

Since Bridgestone Potenza Sport's main advantage is that it is the only UUHP offered in 17inch, it would be extremelly useful to have the same test comparing 17 inch rivals in the likes of Michelin PS4, Conti PC6, Goodyear AS5, Pirelli PZ4. I believe this is the main interest of the everyday 17inch wheel driver with track use in mind. 18+inch wheelers have options, we knew that already.

[@garagecedric]

Fully agree here, when winter is over a new set of tyres might be needed for my GT86, and have had an eye on the potenzas. Annoying that 17" ps4s aren't available over here for example..

[@itsnotagsr]

Great suggestion. Unfortunately more “good” tyres aren’t made in a typical older hot hatch size such as a 17

[@TassieLorenzo]

Comparing tyre weights in 225/45 R17: Falken RT660 10.8kg (track day tyre), Potenza S007A 10.4kg, Potenza Sport 9.9kg [so it's already weight-reduced for low rolling resistance compared to the predecessor model :(], ExtremeContact Force 9.9kg (track day tyre), Pilot Sport 4 9.5kg, F1 Asymmetric 3 9.1kg, PremiumContact 6 8.9kg. While Jonathon has said the 18" CPC6 has good sidewalls, it doesn't seem like the 17" model does, considering how lightweight the structure is. The trend to no longer give 'road' tyres the same rigid structure as track day tyres is very disappointing IMO, lots of people want the precise handling but don't need the grip or poor aquaplaning resistance of a track day tyre. -- Why not have one product line for Passat and C300 drivers who want traction with high comfort, but then a true sports road tyre line for Clio RS and WRX STi drivers who do want the rigidity in the tyre, even if (like the 2005 WRX STi or 2005 Clio Gordini) it only came with 17" or 16" tyres when it was new?

Many people complain about the lack of sizes for Michelin and Goodyear. I have noticed that in general Bridgestone makes new tyres for many different sizes compared to the competition...

[@kloud37]

Thanks for the video! I had the same issue as shown here with the Bridgestone Potenza Sport. On my MX-5 ND (light car, RWD) just 30 minutes on track were enough to show extreme wear on the shoulders. I'm glad that you could replicate this behavior, as I was worried about me doing something wrong. I was previously using the S001 and lasted for 17000 km with several track days. Of course with lower grip levels, but with perfect wear. Not going to repeat with Potenza Sports, as some commented here semi-slicks is the way to go.

[@Specter1031]

This is crazy. My 340i came with S001 RFT and I'm sitting in the shop getting Potenza Sport of on. I'm regretting my decision. Should have spent a little more on the PS4S

[@church493]

Trackday enthusiasts probably will not only do at least some brake improvements like fluid & pads, but also will change alignment some, eg. extra camber, which should reduce outer front tire wear and understeer, making it less of an issue. For me clear and only winner are Bridgestones, due them being only ones offered in 17" sizing. Yes, more modern cars often have larger wheels, but track junkies more commonly drive on older beaters they can afford to risk more and with cheaper track expenses, hence even more kudos to Bridgestone for that. List tested imho missed Contis, also having good offering in class tested, but no biggie, they were in your other tests. Whatever, still big thanks for yet another good & competent test for our enjoyment and more educated tire purchase decisions. Got my like even before watching whole video, deservedly :)

[@tyrereviews]

All good points. I only had time to fun a 3 set test and everyone would have been confused if i included the "premiumcontact" in this group, even if it would have done really well

[@ErikB750]

That camber might be harsh for inner tyre wear …. It’s always costing rubber and money 😉

[@church493]

@Erik B It all depends on where and how most of the wear happens. You just "choose your poison"(optimal alignment for use) according that. If most of the wear happens on track (tire set might be "worth" around 5 track days), and it happens in one season/summer, daily driven mileage/wear in that time will be negligible and extra inner camber wear - ignorable,

I've been running F1 supersport for 2 years and the conclusion I have is, it's not really competing against ps4s. It's very durable after heat cycles, and handles track days extremely well. But it's very stiff, noisy, and wet performance is noticeably worse than PS4S. I think it slots perfectly between PS4S and Cup2.

[@neilturner6749]

I agree, my road-biased experience indicates that the regular GY Eagle F1 series fits between PS4 and PS4S, and for daily road use I wouldn’t want Supersports any more than I’d want to run Cup2s. Maybe we’re just demanding too much: if you’re a regular “Tracker”, get a second set of wheels/tyres rather than asking one tyre to do everything?

[@lerouxfrancis5873]

You're right. Road noise is very important. Eagle F1 are very noisy when they wear out.

I've found the Supersport, to be good in the wet but have never driven the PS4S. I feel it is a good tyre for days when conditions on track are mixed between wet and dry. The road manners are not great, they are noisy. But they do grip well, wet and dry

I had gotten the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S for my VW Golf Gti (even though you recommended, for me, the Michelin Pilot Super Sports)...I was VERY disappointed in the 4 S' as compared to my usual and trusted classic Michelin Pilot Super Sports. So much so, that after about 6 months I traded the 4 S' for some Pilot Super Sports. You are the only reviewer I have come across that has mentioned that the older Michelin Pilot Super Sports "have more road feel" as compared to the newer 4 S'. I would also add, for me, they have much better traction in the dry too. I'm surprised that more driving enthusiasts have also not mentioned this in their reviews...I'm thankful the Michelin Pilot Super Sports are still available here in Greece.

I've been using the F1 SuperSport on my FN2 Civic for about two years now and they're a mixed bag. On a warm dry summer days they're jaw-droppingly good and are very impressive in the wet. Bags of feel and very predictable. On cooler days (10-15c) they have to be warmed up to perform and while they do they're pretty average. On damp days they're a handful and if the roads are remotely greasy they're awful. Overall they're an awesome summer tyre, but they're not a 3-season tyre! I'll be trying the AS5's next as I loved the AS2/AS3's, but I'll have to accept they won't perform like the F1 SuperSport's in summer. Other things to note are an increase in road noise, wear rate and torque-steer over the AS3's I had on last. I'm estimating they'll have done about 8k miles by the time they're down to the limit.

Bridgestone in Australia claim the Sport is an improvement over the S007A, but I'm not sure -- the S007A already performed at a high level, close to Eagle F1 Super Sport & Pilot Sport 4S (and better in some metrics) in tyre testing here in Australia.

[@philipjamesparsons]

Good video again Based on a Tyre Review test, I've been using Eagle F1 Supersport on my RX8, for a few years. They are superb on track and work well in wet and cold conditions where semi-slicks do not. They grip well on the road, but are firmer than normal tyres; buy Eagle F1 Assy 5, if you do do use your car on track. My only complaint is that the smallest size they come in is 18".

[@Sunny-s1de]

What exactly you say about the SS vs the Asymetrics?

[@jonnyadamson]

This was a great video thanks. I recently fitted a set of Potenza sports to my Impreza and so far found the grip on the road is immense. This video makes me think twice about taking them on track though, but the wear could be different with a 4WD car. Maybe better to leave it towards the end of the tyres life. Also it's disappointing that Michelin produce the 4S in only one size for the 18 inch market, this was the main reason for choosing the Potenza. There seems to be limited choice with the F1 Supersport as well.

[@tyrereviews]

It's doubly frustrating as there's more 17" and 18" PS4S sizes in the US, we just don't get them :(

the Bridgestones wear and performance may benefit from having aftermarket suspension (including the others) so don't be afraid to have a go at twisting the knobs on your compression/rebound adjusters if you desire to purchase the Potenza Sports and also happen to have a nice set of coilovers fitted to your vehicle. after all having adjustability over stock is why you bought them.

[@gazman9468]

Fully setup coilovers on my car and achieved very similar looking results to Jon after one track day I'm afraid. The Potenza Sports just aren't suitable for track use.

[@helixworld]

I really like the fact that you show the deterioration after just 5 laps. These tyres are not intended for people with much track experience, although it doesn't mean they are bad tyres. These are for people who want to try their car on track for the first time, or perhaps may never actually drive their car on track even if they believe they could. The biggest problem is the tyre is likely to be toast after 1 or 2 track days, so its going to be expensive when you need to replace them.

[@TassieLorenzo]

While the Potenza S007A was not perfect, I don't think it was as bad as the Potenza Sport in terms of circuit wear. I'm not sure what has gone wrong in the process of Bridgestone Europe revising and updating the S007A!

[@SpoonGT500]

Shame no one has a proper review on Advan AD08RS. Everybody criticise them, but would be interesting how they compare to track and UHP road tyres. Also, Potenza Sport disappointed - that wear is no good. No option in UK for 17" fast road/track tyre unfortunately. Thanks for review Jon.

Am running the GY on another car. Very happy with it and will continue with it over the massively more expensive 4S. In fact, at this time, I just don't see the extra expense of the 4S in this tyre size as worth it at all.

Madness, tyres are the only thing that keep you on the track . You buy the best your budget can afford,especially in high power cars.. PS4s are fairly expensive but 4 fast laps they are useless in a 4wd 400+ hp car. You pay for what you get with tyres that’s a fact.

Really interesting to see this. I’m testing at Mireval next week and this was my first glimpse of the circuit. Thanks JB.

[@milk-it]

Very interesting and consistent test. I drive with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres on my Golf R as a daily. Before driving a few fast laps on the track, the tyres don't have the heat, grip and predictability on the road. Having said that, they do still grip and handle well on the road when they're not a track temperature (pressure consistent), but clearly do not have the better, more optimum performance as they do at track temperature. Furthermore, the general wear of the MPSC2 is very even with no feathering on or off track, and near their end of life they show little to no regression to a sudden loss of grip and performance. Just wanted to throw this out here!

[@tyrereviews]

It's certainl best to use a track tyre on track, but they can be pretty bad in the winter in lots of climates!

[@milk-it]

@@tyrereviews Too true! The MPSC2s aren't quite golf balls in winter here ;-).

[@PenkillerDIY]

Great video! I have the impression that the Michelin flexed it's side wall the least. The comparison is exemplary. Although, it seems that tyres requiring 2.5 bar and still flexing that much are just not the right size. Having in mind that serious setups use 1.3-1.6 bar and wear the same or less. Also, you drive alone, imagine having to seal with 10 or 20 other cars and the associated maneuvers, those won't last 30 minutes. Not critisizing, just a side note for weight of vehicle/tyre size. It would be interesting to see 285 tyres on something like a STi

[@synapticbit]

I have to say, I often don’t expect great things when I see a comparison like this. The number of potential variables is just so huge and the largest being the drivers themselves. So I’ll start by giving kudos to you for seeming to be at the very least a very capable driver who is (more importantly) quite consistent! That is huge when it comes to a shootout like this. While the pilot was the performance leader, it seems like the Michelin generally had the least wear. The Bridgestone had the most wear, but as you mentioned seemed to have come regained its performance as the laps continued. Which would you pick for being the best choice for a daily tire for someone who might participate in a track day more rarely vs more frequently? Is it reasonable at all to think that with either a longer race or multiple races (maybe back to back weekends) that the Bridgestone might offer more consistent performance as wear continues? Or, does the shear amount of wear negate it from being considered a good choice?

I bought a set of MPS 4S in 19" for my RCZ R in the summer and love them. Car has been transformed from the previous GY Eagle F1 Aysmetrics which I didn't like and came on the car as specced by Peugeot. Was planning to do a track day or two next year so your test is very useful indeed. Also got a fantastic deal on them from ATS Euromaster for a set of 4.

[@fabian7942]

How did they wear? I just got myself some PS4's and can't wait to put them on my RCZ. Does the understeer balance stay the same or does it get more balanced since there is such low weight on the back tires?

[@thefridgeman]

Interesting, good to know that there are good alternatives to the "4S". Had the Pilot SuperSport on my CS and also, drove them on a Competition on the track. Really heat sensitive - if you start leaning into them, they will heat up and start understeering. You need to drive with less entry speed AND watch out when accelerating, they broke traction even when going slow. One of the reasons I exchanged them immediately with the Cup 2s on my CS. Also, maybe you could get the ContactSport 6, or even 7, next time. They seem to do well, especially when mounted on a FWD car (CS6 is the OEM tire for the Civic Type R). And, it was hard to watch...can't stand the dreaded sound of understeer. It brings back memories when I "had to do" with a FWD hot hatch. What helped/helps, is sawing a little at the wheel, to break the initial understeer and provoke a bit of oversteer/the back to step out. Not my driving style though, I never got comfortable doing that, but have seen professional (race/test)drivers employing it with success.

How would you think the Good Year Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5s would have fared in this test? They proved to have a more sporty feeling than the 4s in another test you've made (this was your main complaint on the 4s), while being very close in performance. I own them and wear seems to be pretty good as well, also if driven to the limit (even wear across the width of the tire)... Definitely not a screamy tire. Seems like for a prolonged trackday a UHP tire like the 4s might be even better than a track focused tire (will last longer and wear better, at the expense of some speed). Is this what you were trying to prove (or test)?

[@tyrereviews]

The asym 5 vs 4s test is here if you've not seen it. www.tyrereviews.com/Article/2021-Tyre-Reviews-UHP-Summer-Tyre-Test.htm Better is subjective. I'd rather the Cup 2 on a track day as it's better when hot, and even if the 4S out lasts it I'd personally take that extra ability from the track focused tyre

That was my experience with Bridgestone tyres generally - I had a set of RE003's some years ago - they only managed 17,000km before they approached the wear markers and failed annual inspection. Swapped out to PS4's on the same car, same driving conditions, got twice the KM's. Sure the RE003's were cheaper, but they weren't anywhere near half the price of the PS4's! I think they are intentionally ripping people off.

[@videomaniac108]

Thanks Jon for the great review of these high performance street tires, some thing I've been looking forward to. The wear behavior of the Bridgestone seems consistent with what I experienced on a set of Potenza S007s, the OEM tire on my 370Z, after a couple of 5 hour very fast drives down the coastal road(CA-1) in California from Oregon to the SF bay area. The Bridgestone was a better handling tire than the PS4S I currently have but the wear was significantly greater, but then the Potenza was a 240 tire vs the Michelin's 300. My guess is that Bridgestone is using softer tire compounds to achieve high levels of grip, along with stiffer sidewalls.

[@TassieLorenzo]

Yet the S007A (not the OEM-version S007) has a harder compound than the Pilot Sport 4 (not S). It was a 100 durometer reading for S007A versus 75 for PS4. Unclear if Potenza Sport and PS4S have the same relationship. Very odd.

[@tyrereviews]

I've sadlly never tested the S007, thanks for the info though

[@BubbalooXRS]

I recently switched too from the s007 to the 4S. I’ve put over 600 miles on them and I feel they have gotten better or maybe I just got used to them. I still think the s007 were grippier but I couldn’t find them again to buy so I went for the 4S. Do you eventually get used to the 4S?

[@videomaniac108]

@@BubbalooXRS It's hard for me to day that they're grippier than the PS4S, as I haven't broken traction on either set, but they both have tremendous levels of grip and both give me confidence when doin spirited driving. I do like the stiffer sidewalls on the Bridgestone, with the increased firmness and less vagueness in the steering. I estimate that I may get close to 40K miles on the Michelins, something I never expected to achieve in a high performance tire.

For road use at least, the others have caught up. I have a pair of Potenza Sports on the rear of my daily driver (>500bhp but not used on track) and they are the best I have used in >6 years of driving that model of car. For that, the Michelins are >25% more expensive , which is a factor. As is availability - for my second car, which may see track use, the PS4S is not available, in fact the only UHP tyre available in that size that is not a generation or more old, is the Potenza Sport.
