The Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS is a high performance all season tire made for performance passenger cars and SUVs. The model’s tread pattern, with its optimized variable pitch sequence, offers a comfortable and quiet driving experience as it cancels out the road noise generated while the tires are in motion.
The tire offers excellent all weather traction and it grips the road well in dry, wet and winter weather due to the all season tire compound and the special asymmetric tread design. The tread pattern improves the hydroplaning resistance by eliminating water from below the tire footprint. This improves the wet weather traction and maintains high speed stability.
The Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS elongates its usability with the tread design. The tread’s 3D sipes improve the tread stability. The stability of the interlocking tread pattern extends the tread life by not letting the tread elements shift around during the drive. This enables the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure and prevent irregular tread wear formations throughout its performance. This also boosts the road contact, which enhances the braking ability of the model. The tire grips the road better and creates friction at the moment of braking, which shortens the braking distance as a result.
