OVERVIEW: The Bridgestone Potenza S001 (MO) is a high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. This model is the original equipment tire of select Mercedes-Benz vehicles.The tire offers superb summer weather traction and it grips the road well in dry and wet weather. This great traction is the result of the slanted-slug tread block sipes in the tread pattern.
