Pneu Bridgestone Potenza S007 pour véhicules de tourisme et multisegments

I purchased my 2012 Corvette Grand Sport 3 1/2 years ago with 12,800 on the odometer and Potenza REO50A tires. The car now has 19,570 miles and the tires looks new. I do not track the car but do like hard acceleration and tight high speed curves. The tires perform flawlessly. I have no complaint about the noise. I live in South Florida so winter driving is not an issue. I'm not expecting 50,000 miles out of tires on a high performance car. I'll be very happy with 25,000 to 30,000 miles which I fully expect to get. I will not hesitate to replace them with another set just like them.

i have less than 12,000 miles on these tires and the back tires are bald and the fronts have less than 3/32 wear remaining. tires are not wearing unevenly. The run flat tires are considerably noisier than normal tires. for the price paid for these tires i would say the value is terrible. Traction and cornering were great.

I have the RE50A tires on my BMW 335I M Sport and these tires are extremely noisy with only 11,000 miles on the tires and vehicle. This is a $55,000 sport coupe with all of the German sound deadening solutions and I have to turn the radio up super loud to drown them out. Thought it was a faulty front wheel bearing at first but after installing a set of my friends wheels with Continentals the road noise was non existent. I have rotated the tires multiple times with little to no improvement. I have been a Bridgestone guy for years but these tires unbearable. Traction and cornering are nothing but superb but that is about 5% of my commute each day. The other 95% is the woo woo woo of these tires between 25 and 45 MPH. The tread wear is even, and is very good for a performance tire. No bulges or flat spots but the road noise is bordering on embarrassing. I will just have to deal with them until they need to be replaced. Too much tread life left.

OE set on 2009 Pontiac G8 T Panther Black: These are the first set of truly HP tires I've ever owned, so I'm making no comparisons. The subject car was and is operated with traction control engaged and is periodically tested in wet conditions and has functioned as expected. As far as wet traction on these tires, only once did the traction control engage to save from hydroplane effect and that was within the last 1000 miles (the tread wear bar is now showing). These tires came OE on this G8 GT and I am the original owner. The car has ,on a few occasions, been driven in a performance but rarely overly aggressively manner. This car is driven in the southern USA on well maintained U.S. and state highways. Rarely have these tires been driven on poor and degraded roads. The tire set has only experienced 1 flat and that was due to a screw impaled in the tread causing slow leak. Due to improper tire sensor reset, the wrong tire was monitored and the actual "screwed" tire leaked down and was driven for two weeks in a flat condition and without catastrophic failure (these tires are not runflats). Proper air pressure was always maintained in these tires ....37psi Frnt and 39psi Rears. The set was however not regularly rotated but on the occasion that it was at dealership for other maintenance or repairs. Suspension alignment was never an issue with this car. Tires have worn evenly across the tread. There has never been any vibration or balance problems. These tires have been run at and above their 'W' speed rating on occasions without issue and absolutely no shimmy or vibrations what so ever. As far as noise, I did not experience any, but perhaps it is the sweet music of a singing HIGH PERFORMANCE tire. Needless to say, I have been impressed with these tires over the past nearly 8 years and 60k miles, so much so that just today I ordered a new set. I would have preferred to to run them to the exact 60k odometer reading but these tire dealers won't fix the one tire (the one with the screw) because of the minor sidewall seam separation due to flat run. These are some great tires!! I'll be back to remark about the new set of Pontenza RE050A's as soon as I can.

Original set of Bridgestones lasted about 32k before getting replaced. Second set in the rear went bald after only 11k miles. Front ones replaced around the same time are still great. Guess you have to take your chances with no tread wear warranty. Will try the Pirelli run flats next. They have to last longer than 11k miles!!
