I currently have Dunplops on my mk6 GT and the biggest problem with them is the road noise..........
I was hoping that if I get the new car with Bridgestones then tyre/road noise would not be so much of a problem  :angry:

Bridgestones are poor tyres. I would get rid as soon as possible and you may even get some money for them on ebay. If I had the dunlops I would just burn them, they are that bad

Tyres make a massive difference to how the car drives

If I had money to burn then I'd get rid of the Bridgestones straightaway  :angry:

What tyres have people been getting with the 19' Glendales?

Waiting on my Edi 35 at the moment, think its now in Emden and hadn't really given a thought to tyres until now.  Had Conti SC 3's on my Edition 30 which have been fine. By the sounds of it, people none to happy with the Dunlops?!?
