Which "Potenza" tire is the best or good enough. My local Sams Club has 205/60R16 Bridgestone Potenza "G009" for only $80 and that sounds like a great deal, but there are so many Potenza lines...

Anybody use the G009?

Thanks,
Craig

How is it holding up? Feels good in turns like eveything else? I'd love to save some money and use this tire, but I know you get what you pay for.

I'm running the 195/65 15 on my 1300, it's a G019 and at over 3k miles I can't tell any wear at all. Corners great and rides really smooth.

I tried the Potenza when I first tried to go to the darkside and didn't know how to mount one and couldn't get it mounted, since no one had done it yet and I was the first to put a car tire on a 1300 that I know of and I was a VW tire...I was depressed because I couldn't get the Potemza mounted. Now with more experience I would love to give it a try again because it is a cool looking tire!

Yes, I have gone to the Dirtside.
I live up a gravel road, and when it gets well worn, it pack and turns to real fine and when it rains and gets soft, it turns to mud in some spots.
But I like ridden in the dirt, Im an X moto-X. Race MX for about 15 years and just cant get it out of my blood.

This summer it will be the Dustside. Very Happy
