Got a buddy that can get me a great deal on this Bridgestone, any pros or cons?

Lots of guys are running that tire.  Haven't heard a bad thing yet.

I run a Bridgestone Potenza. About 2 years now,First day I put it on, it was raining and someone pulled out right in front of me. If I would of had a MC tire I would have hit him. Stops and handles great in the rain. No complaints. cooldude

That will be my next tire. Got a couple buddies running them and love them. Good looking tire. If you get one get the V rated. It has a harder sidewall.

2 years now on my IS. Just got back from Cheaha on it. Love it. Rain, wind, lots of wind, twisties, loaded highway speed, great all around tire.
