Most anticipated UHP tyres i ever wanted!
Been waiting to try these tyres for months. And I finally get my hands (grip) on it! I have been Bridgestone fans all along when I am still driving my puny Suzuki Carry, I have also been using Bridgestone. And now I manage to try the new S007A. This is a predecessor of the S001 which is already a very remarkable tyre.
The performance of S007A is responsive during dry weather as it has good steering feedback and it gives me more confidence with cornering.
During wet weather driving, which recently always rain. I have tested the tyres and I must say the performance of the wet is superb. It is still grippy during the wet.
And the tyres price itself very competitive among its competitor. It is delightful that the Bridgestone agent position the price so closely matched with other brands PI's models. It gives me more confidence to buy it.
Maybe I will write another feedback about the wear life as I cannot determine yet for now.

What I like Superb wet driving conditions.
Grippy

What I do not like Tyre pattern looks normal and bland. (but it still works like magic!)
Was a PS fan and then Asy fan for price vs performance until I tried S001. When driven hard and pushed to the limit in the dry, the S001, gave awesome grip compared to the Asy (at the expense of tire wear). Also very comfortable tires compared to the Asy. Once it became hard to get S001, I returned to Asy. After being spoilt with the comfort of S001, hated how uncomfortable the Asy were while not giving as much grip at the limit as the S001. Hence, when S007a became available(as a replacement for the S001), I jumped at the chance to change out of the Asy in to these. What I can say it's that the sidewall on these are noticeably harder than the S001, but does not feel as harsh as Asy or P-zeros for that matter. Despite being harder than its predecessor-the S001, dry and wet grip are way up. I can't force the rear of the car to lose traction mid corner anymore. I've really had to change the way I drive with these tyres. They're definitely a class up in terms of grip from the S001. Even after a few months of hard driving- 2 trips to Mersing, I'm surprised at how well these tyres are wearing for the amount of grip that they have. On the old S001, they'd be mid way through their thread depth.

What I like Pure dry and wet grip
What I do not like Harder sidewall compared to the S001.
Too grippy. I'd take the S001 again for how fun those tyres were. Grippy and allows you to break traction if you push them hard enough.
The S007A gives me almost the same level of steering response as RE070 yet it allows a more confident drive in the wet. Highly recommend this as a suitable replacement for the FD2 Honda Civic Type R - Gay Eng Joo, Owner of Honda Civic EJ33--G

Excellent tires that has served me well both on wet and dry road
Excellent tires that has served me well both on wet and dry road so far. Starts getting noisy after 2k, but bearable. Grip on dry toad is excellent, cornering with it works well. - Calvin Lee, Owner of Audi A4 SKG5--P
