The Potenza RE960AS Pole
Position RFT is an Ultra High Performance All-Season
self-supporting replacement run-flat tire developed for
drivers looking for enhanced ride quality and all-season
traction for sports cars, sports coupes and performance
sedans originally equipped with O.E. run-flat tires. The
Potenza RE960AS Pole Position RFT features Bridgestone 3G
RFT Technology designed to offer almost the same riding
comfort as conventional tires while providing temporary
extended mobility for a distance of 50 miles at up to 50 mph
even after a puncture has allowed complete air pressure
loss. Potenza RE960AS Pole Position RFT tires are also
designed to provide year-round driving flexibility by
offering predictable handling, traction and control on dry
and wet roads, as well as in light snow.
The Potenza RE960AS Pole Position RFT molds a dual layer,
high performance all-season tread compound into a
directional design that provides stability on dry roads
while its tread grooves help pump water and slush through
the tire's footprint to increase hydroplaning resistance and
foul weather traction. Scalloped multi-edge lateral grooves
on each tread block leading edge and multiple sipes in each
tread block increase the number of biting edges to enhance
wet road and light snow traction.
The tire's structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by
spirally wrapped nylon, along with a carcass that features
reinforced sidewalls to temporarily support the vehicle
after a puncture causes a loss of air pressure.
Bridgestone's NanoPro-Tech Sidewall reinforced rubber
compound is molded into sidewalls that feature Bridgestone's
Cooling Fin Design to enhance run-flat performance without
sacrificing as much ride comfort. |
