Cannot stand the OE Bridgestones. They have horrible on center steering feel-they do not like to turn in. We have two brand new trendline sportwagens, one with Bridgestones, the other with Conti's, world of difference. If you like how your car drives tires can make or break a car (if you notice). Some tires make the car feel great, others not so much. Why those Bridgestones ended up on these cars no idea, they do not fit the handling of the car at all. It was the same with our 2014's that were traded in, one set with B and one with C, same difference.
Notice the same with snow tires, the Nokian's Hak R2 suit the vehicle (however wear faster then I like), the Conti snows do not offer much traction in this application, almost like driving on an all season.
