Bridgestone Potenza's

Hi,

On my first BMW 118d M Sport which is fitted with BP RF. Done 21k and 4mil on back and 6 up front.
So far been happy with them but noticing the car becoming a bit skittish in the wet, more than ever before.

Is this a common problem as these tyres wear or should I be looking at something else?
If its common issue then they most def not going to get me through this winter.

Myn got very skittish in the rain towards the end of tread life. I could never go safely above 65. You most likely need new rears.

If you plan to keep the car I'd recommend non-rft due to better tread life, cheaper price and ride comfort. Just invest in the BMW mobility kit.

Also 21k on those rft is really good. I pushed my last set of rears to 20k with daily driving. They were slicks compared to my new tires.
