Bridgestones vs Michelins

Who has tried both RFT's ? which is best ?

Bridgestones seem to be fitted to the 320d MSport but the 325 330 335 seem to have the Michelins. Had Michelin PS2's (non RFT's) on my previous cars and they hare top draw.

Any comments as im changing mine soon ?

Had Bridgestones on Z4 for near 3 years 17", found them very hard ride, felt every bump in road and very slippy in wet. I Know RFT technology has advanced but I now have Michelins on my E93 18", ride is still hard but not as bad and grip in wet much better. Could be two very differant cars but thw Z4 was based on E46 suspension and brakes.

Bridgestones are fitted to the 120d and PS2s to the 335d. Difficult to draw any conclusions as one is an SE and the other Sport, also the tyres are quite different sizes. Both tyres are good but the PS2s seem excellent on the sixes, had them on one 330d and MG ZT (both non RFT) and they were great.

^^^ Bridgestones on the 320d MSport and the same size as the 335dMsport.

Anyone experienced PS2 RFT's on a 320d??

I'm on the Michelins (RFT) and they are the best tyres I've ever had!! Highly recommend them...
