    Opinion from outside the UK

    Tyre really recommendable - perhaps a bit loud but compensating all their behavior on the road. For dry absolute revelation. Wet exemplary. Toy car burns a little more than other tyres but really makes up for the loss of steering precision and reactivity. What to wear is quite some recommend, especially for cars 200HP +.

    Opinion from outside the UK

    Good for sporty driving. Strong on the edges, tough and great on corners. Good for wet. Unfortunately my vehicle seems to be too weak for those tyres 177 bhp in 2.0 d. They provide you with great grip on furrows and almost want to spit the car out of it! Great tyres! I would recommend them for sport, powerful vehicles. Read more Collapse

    Awesome! Already ridden many tyre sizes from 15 "to 19", from 195 mm to 235 mm, and this time I managed to perfectly combine comfort with traction, maybe except in reverse, the rear axle 245/45R17 could move up. RE050A are fantastic, I ride them great. Read more Collapse

Product description

Bridgestone Potenza RE050A

Bridgestone RE050A is summer-season tyre which has been optimized for regular passenger cars. The responsiveness and handling on dry roads is superb, and so is the grip and traction on wet roads too. In wet conditions, circumferential grooves quickly remove excess water, so the tyre has better tread-to-road contact and this reduces aquaplaning risks. A strong modern-day mix is used, and this repels mechanical damage, whilst also reducing rolling resistance, and carbon emissions and boosting fuel-efficiency.

Benefits of the Bridgestone RE050A:

  • Fuel-efficiency.

  • Reduces aquaplaning.

  • Excellent traction.





This tyre is produced by Bridgestone, which are one of the biggest tyre manufacturers in the world.
