If I had to make a choice from those i'd go with the bridgestones. ghood grip not too soft either so last for ages I got 20,000 miles out of my last set:approve:

Goodyear Excellence 205/40/ZR17

Why are they too hard?? Have they got good grip in wet and dry??

Steve
side walls to hard thay have probs with side walls splitting
around looks like knife cuts yes ok in wet + dry but you want them to last
as with the bridgestones the crowns will go faster than the tread
the mich have renforced crowns so this holds the tyre flat , so you get better wear .

my proxies lasted quite well. But i was not reassured by them in the wet.
In all the discussions/polls/tests ive seen, michelin exalto's hav come out tops.
