RE-01R
The Potenza RE-01R (with the "R" signifying
Revolutionary) is the Extreme Performance Summer tire member of
Bridgestone's global family of Potenza performance tires
developed for enthusiastic sports car, sports coupe & performance sedan drivers. The Potenza RE-01R is designed to
provide high levels of traction, responsive handling & driving
control in dry & wet road conditions. The Potenza RE-01R is
not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through
snow or on ice.
The Potenza RE-01R molds a soft tread compound featuring a
superior wear resistance polymer to improve both wet & dry
grip while contributing to wear & durability. Semi-Slick
shoulder blocks & a wide center rib enhance initial
responsiveness, provide more surface contact & fortify lateral
stiffness to reduce the irregular wear that can occur during
hard cornering. Two wide, straight circumferential grooves with
Hydro Evacuation Surface (H.E.S.) walls & multiple
directionally aligned lateral grooves increase water evacuation
to resist hydroplaning & enhance wet traction while
Bridgestone's Racing Slit Technology born from F1 wet tire
development, improves surface contact in wet conditions. The
tire's structure includes two wide steel belts reinforced by
spirally wound nylon to provide strength & uniform ride
quality & high-speed capability while the sidewalls are
reinforced by steel cord that helps resist lateral deflection
providing responsive handling & cornering stability.
