Hi all,
Have 2019 s60 Momentum and in need of the 2 front tires. The factory tires are Contis 235/45R18 98H. Have a quote for Bridgestone Prestige Turanza for $200 less than the Contis.The only difference is that they are 98W, rated for much higher top speed. I've heard that the higher speed rating the stiffer the side walls are.They are causing albeit sportier but at the same time tougher ride. Would it be correct assumption or for the regular driver which I am there should no noticeable difference? Thanks.

I think that if you think you can notice the difference, then you are noticing a difference and it’s real.

Inflate (deflate) them to the low end of the range to try to improve the ride.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
