Come for the in-depth tyre comparison, stay for the gratuitous oversteer


Similarly, when it comes to tyres, I was pleasantly surprised to come across a brand that was completely new to me. Davanti, is a relatively new UK-based tyre company which designs and develops its products in Great Britain.

Silent Screamer | Davanti DX640 Tyre Review

Psst! Want to know the best-kept secret in Ultra High-Performance tyres? Prepare to be pleasantly surprised by the Davanti DX640.


Since getting the RE004s fitted, I’ve covered just over 2,000km with them. In this short time, the improvements over the RE003 have shone through clearly – handling and steering response in the dry is markedly better. Through both sharp corners and long sweepers, the RE004s don’t understeer and push out quite as much as the RE003s, and they respond well to mid-corner corrections.

Have no fear, Bridgestone’s new working class hero is here!


So you see, it just demonstrated that you do not have to be, specifically, a Sepang regular to get this tyre; fact is, most trackies have already recognised this tyre’s potential on track and its everyday useability, the Bridgestone Potenza RE-71R is quickly gaining traction — pun intended — among drivers who want the best semi-slick/sporty tyre in the market right now. It’s undeniably pricey, but as they say, you have to pay for quality.

Bridgestone’s most aggressive tyre marries many useful traits that make it desirable even for daily use; here's our review after clocking 6,000 km


Wondering how this is made possible, eh? To put it in laymen’s term (that would be easy for non-engineers - like me, even - to decipher), it begins with a new Bridgestone innovated compound that was developed at the Nano level. This compound was designed to provide almost glue-like grip when it comes into contact with water. Secondly there are the deeper grooves, which are improved over its predecessor, the EP200. Last but not least a round rib edge, which maintain the tyre’s stiffness along with providing maximum contact shape and pressure.

After clocking more than 5,000 km on Bridgestone’s latest comfort-biased rubber, here’s our honest opinion


First a bit about the car. The 160 bhp 2.4-litre Estima came shod with oddly matched forged staggered wheels that while I think look cool, are better fitted on a RWD car. Nonetheless, I've decided to keep them on since they work fine and are in pretty good condition. The tyres though, were not. Wrapped in mismatched brands (one Toyo, one Dunlop, two China-brand), it just made me uneasy whenever I spent time on the road.
