    Opinion from outside the UK

    The tyres in Seat Leon are driven by 200 horsepower in size 225/45/17. I like to squeeze in corners and play with the car and when driving like this, the tyres do a great job - very stiff sides give very precise handling and feeling of the car. Super dry grip, a bit worse on wet, but also positive. On the other hand, tyres are tiring on a daily basis in normal driving because of the stiffness and massiveness of the structure, which translates into very poor damping of unevenness and noise. In a car that is inherently stiff and additionally lowered, such tyres are a nail in the coffin in terms of driving comfort. Conti in the same size and on the same 7.5 "rim look like 205 - for some an advantage, for others, including me a disadvantage. For an everyday car, which should provide a bit of comfort it's propably better to use different model. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    To be honest I have acquired those tyres by accident, before I had Good Year Eagle F1. Both tyres stick on dry asphalt after warming but on the wet roads Bridgestone Potenza S001 has many more advantages. The tyre has a very strong, rigid sides. In turning the tyres hold very well and they’re easy to balance. In cold weather they act any normal tyre but in higher temperature they are way better. As for comfort, it is higher than GY F1. As for noise I do not pay attention to that during driving. The tyres are excellent whether the asphalt is dry or wet. When it comes to abrasion, I ride aggressively especially while taking corners, sometimes a drift happens but the tyre appears to be resistant to it. Overall I would recommend Bridgestone Potenza S001 for those who are looking for good traction and comfort during driving. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    I bought the tyre only a month ago. It was recommended to me by friend who has them. He praised it for strength and running and he was not mistaken. I do not regret that I listened to him. I drove the 3 thousand km, but I can say that it’s a very good tyre, holding to the road, taking the corners without any slip on them, car goes like clockwork. The tyre wear so far is because only 3 thousand. I drove quite aggressively. I really recommend Bridgestone Potenza S001. Someone who likes to ride definitely tougher will not be disappointed. I RECOMMEND! Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    I have these tyres in size 225/45 R17, on the Golf GTI 200 KM. I have mixed feelings about them. In dry conditions, driving is generally OK, except for a sharp start when the tyres break and the ESP goes crazy because the car is dancing, and sharp acceleration - ESP has to work hard too. Wet both these phenomena occur 100 times normal, quiet ride is stable, but I no longer have confidence in those tyres. It surprised me a lot because I read that they installed them in series in very strong, sports cars - I can't imagine that. Read more Collapse

Scale of scores: Highest lowest

Bridgestone Potenza S001 is a tyre of the highest class, which guarantees top-level performance. The asymmetric tread model has been precisely developed. Its design was inspired by the experience gained while working on RE050A model. The tyre is ideal for strong sporty cars.

Safety always comes first though. Bridgestone Potenza S001 maintains full grip on dry and wet surfaces, even when driving at higher speeds. An optimally designed system of cuts in the tread stiffens the tyre, increasing the contact area between the tread and the road. This design improves manoeuvring and cornering, facilitating dynamic driving. The grooves in the inner part of the tread quickly evacuate water outside of the tire to protect it against dangerous aquaplaning. On the other hand, solid blocks on the outer part help to maintain stability on dry roads.

Bridgestone Potenza S001 has a structure that reduces noise and vibration, ensuring high travelling comfort.. Its silica rubber compound not only improves grip on wet roads, but also protects the tyre against rapid wear and reduces fuel consumption (low rolling resistance).

Bridgestone Potenza S001 was chosen to be fitted as standard on many stylish cars, including the Ferrari F458 Italia, Porsche Panamera and Audi RS5.





Bridgestone is one of the largest tyre manufacturers in the world and one of the technology leaders in the industry. This Japanese company supplies products of exceptional craftsmanship.
