Different compounds are produced for different tracks and conditions. Sometimes they send the teams inappropriate tires.
Anyone know about Bridgestones? I've heard some good things about these. Has anyone else? Tire Details - Discount Tire

All I can say about Bridgestones are that the set my dad had on his truck threw rocks like non other. He hated them. I used to have Auroras on my 78 wagon I think. I don't really remember how they handled to be honest. It was a hassle to keep that car on the road and running the way it was. lol. When I first got my current car (Grand Prix) in Aug 2010 it came with Goodyear Eagle LS tires on it. They were alright for the maybe 20,000miles I had them before I burned them down to nothing from burnouts and stuff. (I was a stupid teenager). My next set was Goodyear Eagle GTs and then my tranny pooped so I never did any burnouts on the GTs after the rebuild and I got maybe 16,000 on them. I liked how they looked on the rim (wider than the LSs) and they handled on dry pavement like a boss I thought. Winter came and they seemed like they never got good traction with snow. I then picked up a set of Bullitt rims and put Khumos on them. So far have no complaints. Then snow hit so I got a set of Goodyear Assurance Comfortred or something like that that I am running now and I absolutly love them for winter. They seem too handle great in the snow. I was able to do just under 65 on the hwy and had to slow down to 45 because everyone else was only going that fast but when I was going 65 I wasn't slipping or anything. By far the best tires I have ever had. Both my dads Monte SS and my moms Intregue have them too and they work great.
