Bridgestone Potenza RE71R
In the street or at the starting line, it’s time to kick it into high gear. The Bridgestone Potenza RE71R isn’t your ordinary ultra-high performance summer tire.
Built with technology inspired by racing, this Bridgestone tire is designed to maximize your sports car’s performance while braking, cornering, and maneuvering.
To achieve this, the Potenza RE 71R utilizes its special compound optimized for maximum grip, a wide center rib to enable agile steering, and a stiff outer shoulder that allows for extreme cornering. And, this tire is more than capable of handling wet conditions thanks to its specially designed surface, which helps promote water drainage.
Bridgestone Potenza RE71R Features
- Achieve maximum grip with unique construction and race-ready tread compound
- Engineered with Bridgestone's most extreme racing-inspired technology
- Take corners with confidence thanks to enhanced shoulder stiffness

These are road legal competition tires. They will show you some of the most grip your vehicle can offer, but they wear away very fast and are good for what they are in the rain, which is so not as good as a regular street tire. If you want to win races, I recommend these 100%

I only drive this car about 1200 a year so I thought that I should enjoy it. The last tires had to be replaced due to age, not worn out. They still grip well and have good tread remaining.
