Tyres... just about to order some, need some help

Right, I can wait no longer for tyres, really need to order some new ones asap.

 

Can't decide between Bridgestone RE50A Pole Positions and Goodyear Eagle GS-D3

 

Decided I'd plump for the RE50A Pole Positions today, they are slightly more money but do well on reviews. Then I realised there is a non pole position version (and it doesn't do so well in tests, so I don't want that).

 

I was looking here (good prices) http://www.mytyres.co.uk/start.html at size 235/40/18 for the fronts, rears to follow in a week or two - same type

 

unfortunately it's one of those annoying sites where you can't link to the content directly, but does anyone know if these will definitely be Pole Position versions of the tyre? (or talk me out of the Bridgestones before I part with my hard earned cash)

 

cheers :)

I just put some Falken 452's on the rear (£191 fully fitted). Absolutely great & very impressed for the 400 miles driven over the weekend. Not tried them in the wet though. IMO much better than Toyo Proxy T1-R's I had before. F1 GSD3's are good too

The RE050's are the better tyre, I might be able to do a better deal will need to check tommorow though.

yes I have Falken 452's on the rear at the moment, they seemed pretty good but they are worn out too! an expensive month this one!
