#41 of 188 Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position Tires by allagaroo Jan 09, 2007 (4:48 pm)
I am seriously considering leasing a M35X and believe that some of the complaints about road noise and driveability issues are related to the Goodyear RS-A's. They are a very poorly rated expensive tire by Tire Rack. I'm going to try to work out a swap deal with my local tire dealer to have the new Bridgestones be put on the car. I was wondering if any of you any experience with the Bridgestones on The M35X. If so, please advise. Thanks

#44 of 188 TPMS and stability control? by s54 Feb 15, 2007 (10:22 am)
Replying to: blov8r (Nov 22, 2006 6:35 am) I have the same issue with my winter tires and rims even though I have the TPMS sensors on this set.   However, my question is: Does this affect the stability control functionality if the car cannot read the sensors? The dealer is kind of far away and it is not that much of an issue not to have the tire pressure being monitored, but if it's a safety issue...   Thanks in advance for the comments.   S Replies to this message: james27 (Feb 15, 2007 3:58 pm)

Replying to: s54 (Feb 15, 2007 10:22 am) I doubt the system relies on the tire pressure monitoring system to adjust the stability control. I'm pretty sure much of it is done with the anti-lock brake sensors - they monitor the relative speed of each wheel. If one tire was significantly lower pressure, it could trigger the anti-lock, but it would take a fairly big loss of pressure to do it.

Replying to: lexusmonkey (Feb 21, 2007 7:44 pm) Are the factory tires on the M45 Sport All Season or summer/performance tires?   Summer max performance tires. Bridgestone Potenza RE050A. Excellent dry handling tire. Pricey but down to a mere $245/tire at Tire Rack.

Replying to: lexusmonkey (Feb 23, 2007 1:23 pm) I'd check on www.tirerack.com. Personally, I tend to prefer two sets of wheels/tires and get the best of both worlds based on the season. All-season are a compromise in all seasons...as tire technology gets better, the gap narrows some, but then they make improvements in the dedicated season tires again, too.

Replying to: james27 (Feb 23, 2007 1:28 pm) I agree with the two-set philosophy. I have just finished my first New England winter with my M45 Sport, having purchased a set of Blizzack tires (on ASA rims) from my Infiniti dealer (I shopped the Tire Rack and the dealer was within $20 for the set of 4).   The car handled beautifully in all road conditions, from dry, to wet, to snowy, to ice. Obviously, the traction control is a big contributor to the performance.   In fact, I much prefer this setup to my old car, an Audi A6 Quattro with high-performance all season Michelin PS-2's.
