Nice tires. Put them on my Ford Fusion, and they look nice. Can't go wrong with Bridgestones. They ride smooth and the ride noise is low....

Designed for high-end sports sedans and crossovers, the Bridgestone Potenza S001 RFT features a silica-enhanced tread formulation for summer traction and long wear, water evacuating grooves to resist hydroplaning, and a tread pattern that's computer-tuned to keep road noise to a minimum. What's more, the Potenza S001 RFT features run-flat technology, enabling a driver to safely keep going for up to 50 miles at speeds of 50 MPH or less, even in the event of tire failure.
Features & Benefits
- Speed rating W (168 mph)
- Designed for use in warmer weather conditions
- Silica-enriched tread compound
- Run-flat design
Summer tires are designed for use in warmer weather or in areas where the temperatures does not drop below 40 degrees. These tires are ideal for ue in warm, dry, and wet conditions that are common in the summertime.
Passenger tires are some of the most common tires you'll find on the roads today, and frequently used on coupes, sedans, hatchbacks, minivans, and other passenger vehicles. Passenger tires are available in a wide variety of types, such as all-season, winter, and ultra-high-performance.
This product is not covered by a manufacturer’s treadlife warranty.
The maximum carrying capacity for a tire determined by the manufacturer.
Maximum speed capability to safely carry a load for an extended period of time.
The maximum load carrying strength at the specified inflation pressure, also known as ply rating.
The side of the tire between the tread and rim, with cosmetic branding as well as information about the tire including manufacturer, model, size, etc.
Standards that measure treadwear, temperature resistance and traction, example: "640 A A". The 640 is the treadwear test and it lasted 6.4 times longer than the comparison tire tested against. The first "A" is the traction rating using straight-line wet traction on test surfaces (see information tables tab) and the second "A" is the temperature rating by testing operation at high speeds without heat-related failure (see information tables tab).
Wet Traction is a piece of the UTQG for example if UTQG is: 500 AA A, the wet traction piece is the second piece, the "AA".
Measured in 32nds of an inch, this metric shows how much tread life is left on a tire, with the tire's traction & stopping capabilities greatly diminished at 4/32nds and less. Tire manufacturers include "tire wear bars" at 2/32nds to indicate when your tire is worn out.
The highest inflation pressure (measured in pounds of force per square inch, PSI) the tire is designed to contain, and should only be used when called for by the vehicle placard.
An identifier of a particular tire line and size combination assigned by the tire manufacturer.
Tread design (or tread pattern) can affect handling, traction & noise for different driving styles & road conditions.
Shipping weight (lbs)
The measurement of width from a tires inner sidewall to the outer sidewall.
The range of widths the rim of the vehicle can be for this tire to be safely mounted on.
The diameter of a tire that is inflated without any load applied.
This tire features run flat technology that’s designed to assist the driver during a puncture of pressure loss.
