Yeah seriously lol. I bought my first set of bridgestones and almost wrecked on the highway that same day. Out of all the tires I have bought new, the bridgestones are the most unstable until you break it in. Just give it a good 200 miles or so of easy driving before you start hitting the turns and you'll be set.

Sounds like I picked the right tire. I will take all the advise and drive like mom for the first 200-500 miles till they break in. When I got the car in May it came with some cheap off brand tires that absolutely howl on the road. Some times it sounds like I have mudder tires installed. Looking forward to a quiet(er) ride.

I had these tires on my old ES and let me tell you that they are EXCELLENT ... best tires I've ever used ... Not only are they quiet, but they have excellent traction wet or dry and trust me this has saved my a$$ a couple times ... wet traction is especially important here in FL since it rains ALOT ... I once had to slam on the brakes from 50 - 0 mph in the rain and i did not hydroplane it was amazing ... Only complaint I've ever heard from anyone about these tires is that they wear out a little quicker than other tires in it's class ... As soon as my GS needs some new rubber I'll be buying these again ...

To every one else thanks for the feedback. Glad to hear everyone was pleased with them. The ride was already WAY quieter on the way home today. Huge improvement over the cheapo tires that were on it when i bought it.
