I've been running Yokies and they are a) bloody noisy and b) I got naff-all mileage out of them

They are however grippy! (Take a long time to become "good" in the wet though-not a confidence giver but I've never found Yokies any good in the wet)

I can't compare to the bridgestones as I've not had them.

I wouldn't buy them again though, not unless I could throw money away as I pleased.

David, the rim code is 4E0 601 025Q with size 7.5J X 18H2 ET40. Car came with these rims from the factory for winter and 4E0 601 025N 8.5J X 19H2 ET45 for summer.

Sorry for late reply.

I'm currently running Yoko Advan's on my car, not noisy as some I've used, and the grip level is pretty good.

I'll report on wear later.
