Anyone with HPT have the vibration problem?

Just wondering if anyone with the HPT (Bridgestone Potenza) has the vibration problem?

No, the RE030's do NOT have the flatspot issue

No we don't because the composition of the tire is different. There is some information in both the previously posted threads as well as the tire rack site on composition. That's the reason I asked for the HPT's on mine!

I drove an HPT 6spd at the deales on Friday and it did not have the Vibration problem. It handled much better as well as better grip.

HPT, no vibration, good grip. They seem to wear pretty fast, and are slightly noisy, but not objectionable. Better grip transforms this car. Glad I got them.
