Hey, new to this forum -- just signed the papers on a 07. I pick it up tomorrow. I have a friend who manages a Bridgestone tire store and can swap the tires out. Should I keep the Turanza EL42s or swap them out for Potenza RE960AS Pole Positions? Both are all season and according to Bridgestone, highly rated in their class. The Turaza is a "touring" tire and nearly $280/tire but I like the sporty looks of the much cheaper Potenza. Which is a better all around tire? How do you guys like the OEM Turanza?

The stock Turanza's are not worthy of being called a tire, Period!

If he will swap them out for free or very little money, jump on the deal as the Potenza's are better rated.

Check out Tirerack's website for the references

The Turanza's came in 23rd in it's class.

The Potenza RE960 comes in 1st.
