Bridgestone Potenza RE050 - Summer Max Performance tire
Original equipment on many high-performance vehicles, the Potenza RE050 is built for the pleasure of driving. This tire comes loaded with race-proven technology: UNI-T for outstanding wet and dry traction, a tread pattern that promotes rapid water evacuation, variable dimensions in the tread blocks, and the smoother shape to reduce road noise. An asymmetrical pattern in the RE050A tread increases surface contact to enhance acceleration and cornering. Put this Potenza through its paces and discover what ultra-high performance really means.

  • Maximizes tire performance by optimizing the appropriate combination of tread design, casing shape, materials, and construction
  • Improves uniformity and ride comfort through use of a single continuous strand of cable in the bead construction

  • Protects wheels from curb damage through raised rubber ridge
  • Provides a higher level of uniformity and high speed capability through use of a continuous nylon wrap
