Summer tires
I am planning to purchase 4 Bridgestone Portenza S-04 Pole position245/45/19 non run flat tires to replace existing run flats.
Does anyone have some experience with the Portenza S-04 tires. |

Where are you looking to get those in Ottawa? I had the Hankook Ventus V12's but they only lasted 2 seasons, mind you I have the 20" staggered set up so don't know if that makes a difference or not so this summer I purchased the Conti ExtremeContact DWS on sale at Canadian Tire of all places.

I am enjoying my Pirelli P Zero Runflats. Heard the best summer tires are the Michelin Super Sports. Heard good things about Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position.

While the Michelin sport is also a good tire, I don't think its worth the extra cost. |

Grippy but more quiet and comfortable than the RFT tires we had previously. Most would compare them with the Michelin Pilot Super Sport which is what I run on the 335.

Off topic here but which dealer do you use for service, Elite or Otto's? I've heard terrible things about Otto's so we always use Elite. |

With the cdn dollar at such a low value compared to US it is difficult to get a price advantage now however, if the cdn $ gets comes up to 90cents US, back to the US for my next purchase. |

I replaced the Pirelli P Zero Runflats (after 5000 Km) with Michelin Sport Contact 5 245/50 R18 100 Y.
A great upgrade in drive comfort and handling ! |
