Bridgestone Potenza RE070R 255/40R20 ZRF 97Y

Bridgestone Potenza RE070R. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Enhanced controllability; High speed performance; Summer weather traction; Run flat tire model; . OVERVIEW: The Bridgestone Potenza RE070R is a high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs.This model offers excellent summer traction. The asymmetric tread pattern and the summer compound improve the tires performance in dry and wet conditions. In this manner, the optimized tread elements maintain close contact with the driving surface at all times. Additionally, the special compound blend prevents heat accumulation along the tread area in warmer temperatures. At the same time, the optimized grooves effectively eliminate water from the footprint in wet situations, in order to resist hydroplaning.The asymmetric tread pattern and its close contact with the driving surface boost the tires steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the tires steering response time is faster and more precise to the drivers commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. The wide shoulder blocks and the special siping detail upgrade cornering and braking. As a result, these elements enhance the tires overall controllability and maneuvering.This tire is manufactured with run flat technology. The reinforced internal structure withstands the weight of the vehicle and its passengers after air pressure loss. This limited, temporary performance enables the tire to be driven for 50 miles up to 50 mph after air pressure loss. This protects the tire from being stranded on the side of the road. Instead, it can arrive at a nearby location where the tire can be fixed or changed. Run flat tire models should not be mixed with regular tires on the same vehicle.The Bridgestone Potenza RE070R promotes high speed performance. The reinforced internal structure keeps the ideal tire shape under the driving pressure affecting it. As the tire does not deform under pressure, it can safely perform. On the other hand, the special silica compound prevents heat accumulation along the tread area in warmer temperatures. This combination enables the tires to secure performance at high speeds. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
