OVERVIEW

The Bridgestone Potenza RE-71R is a high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

This tire model offers exceptional summer weather traction as the tire grips the road well in wet and dry weather conditions. This tire model is not meant to be used in winter weather, as it loses its superb traction in colder temperatures. The tire’s specially designed tread pattern helps enhance the tire’s hydroplaning resistance as the circumferential grooves and the shoulder grooves that resemble the number seven help channel water away from the footprint. While the tire will resist hydroplaning, driving in heavy rain or through still water requires caution on the driver’s side to reduce the chance of accidents.

The tire has remarkable high speed performing capabilities. The maximized gripping ability of the model, provided by the special compound and internal structure used by the manufactures, improves its braking and cornering ability and power. The unique larger tread blocks on the tire’s shoulder and the stiffness of the tread provide the tire with a better cornering ability and power. The tire grips the road well in cornering situations, increasing the high speed performing ability of the model in such situations. The braking distance of the tire is also shortened. The maximized road contact patch and the stiff tread create better friction, making the tire stop shorter.

The Potenza RE-71R has excellent performance in both dry and wet weather conditions. This is due to its racing-inspired technology used in the construction. This tire was manufactured for everyday driving to combine great performing ability, good steering precision and first-rate traction. The tread pattern’s wide center rib helps improve the precision of the steering responsiveness. The use of this model is made safer as the steering is more accurate and swift, offering effortless control to the driver.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
