Bridgestone Potenza Sport 225/45 R17 94 Y XL, FR

Very good tyres, even with a limited-slip differential on the back and rear drive. In the wet, amazing; in the dry the same :) They hold the road like mad. Read more Collapse

Amazing, they grip the road hard, but are also quite quiet, overall very cool Read more Collapse

Tyres are quiet . They stick to the road surface. Read more Collapse

I switched to the Potenza Sport from the Vredestein Ultrac Satin. The Bridgestone brand tyre certainly has better handling characteristics in terms of cornering grip. Interestingly, the tyre is not at all stiffer as far as comfort is concerned than the Vredestein, which actually floated quite a bit in corners, and unfortunately was hard.... The greatest asset of the Potenza is how it behaves in the entrances to a sharp turn. You can feel the well-designed tread sidewall in such moments, and you have a confident grip. I also have the impression based on steering and the behavior of the car that these tyres are lighter, but I have not weighed them. I describe the handling precision itself as good, although I thought it would be more “sharp”. The Bridgestone is a rather noisy tyre, although it doesn't bother me. In my opinion, it is a good compromise for the street and more demanding, winding paths. The rate of wear I am unable to determine, as I have covered only 3-4 thousand kilometers. Read more Collapse

I definitely recommend it! The tyre is sensational, except maybe for the fast start, here there is a slight problem, but it completely compensates for it with holding in the corners and when braking. In addition, the tyre really quiet (of course, on good pavement) only on poor pavement it begins to be heard. Even crossing the slip limit it does not make any sound. I am truly very satisfied with these tyres, some of the best I have driven on, and I do about 30 thousand kilometers a year. Read more Collapse
