Bridgestone Potenza RE97AS
This model is a Grand Touring All-Season tire built for the owners of luxury coupes, premium sedans, crossovers, and SUVs for whom mileage, all-season traction, and handling are the main priorities. The all-seasons tires are designed to perform year-round conditions, the Potenza RE97AS combines touring tire fundamentals with the enhanced steering response as well as all-season traction, even in occasional light snow.
Bridgestone Potenza RE97AS comes with an advanced high-grip, high-silica content compound molded into a symmetric tread pattern designed to show good all-season traction, steering response, and high level of ride comfort. The engineers use the optimized footprint to offer even contact pressure to enhance uniform wear and traction. The stiffened shoulder blocks and continuous rib provide responsive steering and extra cornering stability.
For safety reasons, the independent intermediate and center ribs are separated by circumferential grooves to provide better water evacuation under the tire footprint offering high hydroplaning resistance.
Inside the tire, we can find twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon designed to add extra durability and low rolling resistance. Best of all, this model is available in 16 to 20-inches sizes and speed ratings up to a Y, backed by up to a 55,000-mile tread life warranty.
