If the Bridgestones turn out to be better at traction than casual rep in the USA, that would be consistent with Bridgestone's EU rolling resistance and traction ratings. The EU gives the Bridgestone low-rolling-resistance tires top ratings in both rolling resistance and wet traction.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
