I put MPS on the Vette and ....whoa new car. I like the Bridgstones....but i fear non enthusiast willl not like the 10k mile maybe life expectancy.....if you really drive.


ceramics is the answer here.....and while you at it drop in some high boil point fluid..and have it bled... Since the car overheats .....anywhere i could save fluids from overheating i would..

I had the Bridgestone tires on my '08 Audi TT and wore them out in 15,000 miles! And in regards to the brake dust, it's nothing compared to the German vehicles. I've been happily surprised with my short 1300 miles I've established with my Z. 2 cents anyway!
