Bridgestones - what's actually wrong with them?

[fredgroves]

Ok, so after yet another Bridgestone thread are we done on this subject?

Is there actually anyone who won't accept a bad word about them on a Mk7? I mean F1 used Bridgestones didn't they ;-)

I don't have the issue with excessive tyre noise that other members complain about but I've not experienced driving a Golf with any other make of tyre.
For the type of driving I do, they are absolutely fine 99% of the time, so I won't be wasting £400 changing them any time soon.
My car is almost 12 months old and I have only done 3750 miles so I think I will have these tyres for another 10 years

If I was changing them I imagine I would be buying PS4's .

What has bridgestone making tyres for F1 in the past got to do with it?
