I'll be the first one to admit that I am still enamored over the 1st gen 3's. A part of me is still wanting to pick up a used one. But hopefully, my current ride last long enough to pick up a 2012 Focus used. Gosh, that could be a long time from now.

Supposedly its exactly the same, except the bubbles arent making thudding noises anymore. I actually asked if i could take a spin in it and I did. It definitely feels like theres something screwy, almost like its calibrated way way way way too sensitively. Like the slightest twitch of the wheel moves the wheels. Maybe its supposed to be this way? I can understand why but it really gets fatiguing on long highway drives.

Yep, I get the whir thud noise. Crap.
I don't think I'll ever get Bridgestone's again. Damn Costco for making insane deals on these.

1 st gen is where it's at. If you bought a 2nd gen, you were late to the party. Also, 2 gen is fugly in HB form.

I've had 4 sets of Bridgestone tires. One set was truck tires and were excellent. The others have been car/SUV tires or OEM tires and they are junk. I'll never buy Bridgestone again either.
