Good 14" tires...

FWIW, the Bridgestone RE950 is now the RE960 on TireRack.

Note that until May 6, Bridgestone is offering a $100 rebate when buying a set of 4 RE960s.

They have them in 14".

Any experiance with these Lance. I would love to find a good 14" through Tire Rack casue I get a discount through work. Griot's ftw!

The RE950's have about the stiffest sidewalls in the all-season category, up there with the Nero M&S. They're also useless in the snow, so don't consider them all-seasons in practical terms.

no wonder i liked them even in the spring and fall :p

the snow performance got me around well enough, when they wear out i'll get a set of dedicated snow/winter tires.

What's the better choice between the RS2 and the RT-615? I've been reading online, only the best sources for me, and people have been saying the RS2 has a softer sidewall. GRMS rated the two Azenis over the Hankooks, but I'm still wondering which one I'd want. Is both of their treadlives similar? The Hankooks have to have much better water channeling, but that only means the grip of the Falkens are going to be better.

This comparo has been beat to death over at bf.c auto-x and track with (I think) in most people's minds the RT-615 being the better choice.

Can anyone give me a rough estimate of the life of a RT-615 versus a RS2?
