New Bridgestone Potenza
Does anyone know anything about the tyres mentioned in the current Autoexpress article on the new STi Type-UK?

It mentions new Bridgestone Potenza tyres that are OEM on it and if look at a paper copy of the magazine you can just see around the edge of the tyre that the grooves in the tread that run across outer part of the tyre to the edge are very widely spaced apart, much more so than S-03s.
I want them!

£850 is a high price for these wheels and tyres. The dealers buy them for around £500, so offer them 550-600, max.
£850 gives them far too much margin, they should be happy with 10%!!!
