Been offered a set of brand new bridgestone winters for my a4 for 75 quid each and was wondering if it was a good deal and whether they are any good?

So do we have a wiki?

No winter tyres on the existing tyre wiki?

AFAIK, the general opinion is that ANY winter tyre will be better than the best summer tyre in winter conditions. If you can get them cheap, go for it.

Wouldn't it be quicker to just google bridgestone winter tyres and see how much they are?

Yes and no.

I could find out the cost but was hoping some people on here may have used them and be able to give an opinion on whether they were any good or whether i should get something different.

You would need to tell us the tyre size before we could tell you if it was a good deal or not. I would also check whether they are "new" as in unused or "new" as in manufactured within the last couple of years. I would expect a Bridgestone tyre to be fairly decent, all else considered.
