Bridgestone Potenza RE960 AS Pole Pos


Engineered for premium sports cars and sedans, the Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position Run Flat tire offers ultra-high-performance and all-season traction. This tire features proprietary cooling fins that dissipate heat, helping it perform better and last longer even when put through extreme racing-style maneuvers. The tire also provides great all-season traction, thanks to a hydro evacuation surface that reduces the risk of hydroplaning. And as an added safety feature, the tire features run flat technology that allows you to drive on a flat tire for 50 miles at up to 50 MPH. Choose the Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position Run Flat tire for these great benefits.

Overall great tire. Replace the OEM Pirellis with these Bridgestone and I doubt I’ll go back.

These are run flat tire which will never ride and perform as well as traditional tires. With that being said, these are a vast improvement over the Pirelli tires that came with BMW X3. They are much quieter and ride better; it’s not a great ride, but better than the OME. These tires have a 30,000 mile warranty and at 10,000 miles, they seem to be wearing as expected. The Pirelli tires had the be replaced at 20,000 miles.

So far these tires are perfectly fine. I have no issues with them and would definitely purchase them again.

We can actually hear the radio at highway speeds instead of the tires. Can't say much about tire mileage since a SUV decided to mate with my Mini. But that 1,700 miles makes it certain that my next Mini will be wearing RE960's.

Best purchase ever. Was traveling 600 miles+ to go see my son. All of a sudden tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) light comes on. I have a full trunk with luggage & stuff. Did not have to take nothing out the trunk. Drove to Discount Tires, I had the road hazard warranty, the tire was fixed the fast. I was back on the road in no time. Thank You!!!
