High Performance All-Season tires offer performance oriented handling, civilized road manners and reasonable tread life. Fashion plays a role too, as the trend toward stylish tread patterns and eye-catching sidewalls gain momentum.
The Bridgestone Potenza G 019 Grid fits this mold to a T. To find out just how well it performs, we put it through the paces against other popular choices from the category.
The Potenza G019 is not a noisy tire when new but have over time proven prone to uneven wear which is what introduces noise complaints. Bridgestone have quietly updated the design with an extra tread element to reduce uneven wear problems.

If you really want to know how these tires sound and feel, Autocross them. Not saying this review isnt accurate but, have I used my G019 Grids a of couple times and they are NOT quiet.

i heard the same thing about tire noise with the Potenza G009's and the road noise was fine, non existant on my 01 prelude. i just bought the G019's and am looking forward to getting them on. also the Potenza tires have quite a long life span

I just put them on my Wife's 2008 Honda Civic as well. She says she does not notice any increased road noise.

The G019 is NOT a quiet tire. The Michelin is a pretty quiet tire. My wife's Forester has less tire noise than my friend's Acura TL with the newer G019s.
Personal experience. Michelins for me next!

I'm getting the Potenza G019 Grid tomorrow. I hope it live up to this review. Of course, the BMW is already a good handling vehicle, I wonder how they perform on my 01 Camry.
