Is that the same neighbor with the greasy finger or do you live in a particularly challenged neighborhood?

This is told by my local Bridgestone dealer,in S'pore,we only got S-001[flagship model],RE-002,for 19".But Bridgestone is selling very expensive here,S-001,245/40,285/35 are selling at S$2800.00,while my Michelin PSS costed only S$1900.00...

oh i see... i hope your tire dealer has actual performance comparison data to back that up. RE050A's arent really
known for its good performance so saying S001's are the same is not a positive thing. RE11A's are the flagship
model in my area from bridgestone.

RE050A PolePositions on the other hand, were good tires. i liked those a lot
and had similar characteristics as the S04's. S04's are better than the RE050A PP's though.

you guys in singapore are paying a premium for anything that is labeled cool...?

Yes,petrol,cars & houses..all very expensive here,"Fast & Furious 6" Actors/Actress are shocked by the prices of cars in S'pore during an interview a few years ago.
