Mine came with Yokohama S32As. I was talking to a friend of mine last night and he just bought one and it came with Bridgestone Potenzas. How many other different tires come OEM?

 

As far as I know, most tCs came with the Bridgestone Pontenzas. Perhaps the dealer where you bought the car changed the tires for some reason (old ones damaged, someone else wanted them, etc.).

 

The Yokohama lists the S32A as the OEM tire for 2005 tC (mines an 06)

The Bridgestone website also states the RE92 is OEM for 2005 tC.

Anything else?

 

PZero Nero's on my rs.

 

my OEM tire was the bridgestone potenza (05).

 

My tC came with Yoko AVS. Dunno what that was about. Kind of wished i got the P zeros. Anyone have a clue why i got these?

 

FYI, our data shows the following tires are used as O.E. on the tC.

ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TIRES
215/45ZR17 Bridgestone Potenza RE92
215/45R17 Yokohama S32A

OPTIONAL O.E. 18" TIRES
P225/40R18 Pirelli P-Zero Nero M&S

 

from what I have seen the bridgestone and yokohama tires have pretty similar tread patterns. I dont know if that means anything to anyone, but thought I would share

 

I think they may have switched to the Yokohama's for '06. I was at the dealer getting my 15,000 mile service and I noticed the '06 had Yoko's. My early '05 came with the Potenzas. The tread pattern does look near identical. Not sure which is better even though I know the Potenzas blow lol.

 

well i have a Flint mica tC that is a 06 with potenzas. but i also had a black one with yokos so... its not the year of the car. *the black one was a 06 also*

 

i have an 06 with Yokos
