Bridgestone Potenza RE-71R
This model is a summer tire developed for powerful sports cars, sports coupes, and premium sedans owners who are looking for extreme performance.
The Potenza RE-71R has an advanced tread compound designed to improve grip by increasing contact with the road surface. It is molded into a directional tread pattern which presents a continuous center rib along with generous shoulders to ensure the best steering response and extra cornering stability.
For safety reasons, Bridgestone has wide circumferential grooves with hydro evacuations surface ridges and multi-angle "7-shaped" lateral grooves. Due to this tread design, the risk of hydroplaning becomes lower ensuring increased longitudinal and lateral aquaplaning resistance when it comes to heavy rains and wet roads.
The tire has a special internal structure with a symmetric shape designed to better distribute footprint pressure. To increase the tire durability and high-speed capability the engineers use two wide steel belt construction reinforced by spirally wound nylon.
This model is available from 15 to 20-inch sizes backed by a limited tread life guarantee. Don't use these tires in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
