Products [Details] -POTENZA S001-
|
Bridgestone
has extended its sport tyre
line-up with the launch of the Potenza S001 for top sports cars and
high-powered luxury vehicles. Reliving the motor-sport heritage of
Potenza tyres, the S001 is designed to give the world's most powerful
sports models even sportier handling and higher efficiency than the
current Potenza RE050(A) it complements. With factory fitments on the
Aston Martin Rapide and Ferrari 458 Italia, the Potenza S001 clearly
meets the challenging demands of both heavier luxury sports cars and
the new breed of lighter, extreme sport models.

Semi-Slick
Center Rib
Slick-style center rib improves the handling response of the steering
center.
[NEW]
60° Slanted Lug
Block sipes are positioned a 60° angle, with the same effect as
the
nose of an F1 racing car. Block rigidity has been optimized, improving
both traction and braking performance.
|
GUTT
II Simulation Straight Grooves
With GUTT II Simulation the alignment, thickness and configuration of
the straight grooves significantly reduce the risk of hydroplaning. |
Block
and Slick Combination
Lateral grooves improve traction and braking. The combined with slick
areas, reduces wear on the inside edge and guards against becoming
unbalanced with the outside edge. |
[NEW]
Multi-Performance Block
The outside block, which takes most of the
load when cornering, has been enlarged and reinforced to improve both
wet and dry handling. |
|
|
|
Reducing
the Potenza RE050's four main grooves down to three enables a larger
block on the tyre's outside edge. This, combined with the new
"Multi-Performance Block" and "60°
Slant Lug", enables improved handling and braking performance in both
wet and dry conditions.

|
|
Potenza S001
is the designed tyre for factory installation on the biggest names in
high-performance cars. This is testimony to the outstandingly
superior performance and quality that its developers strived to achieve. |
|
|
Utilizing
the Silent AC Block used in Turanza GR90, Potenza S001 is a sports tyre
that is designed with noise reduction in mind. Strengthened casing
imporves handling and ensures a ride that is as comfortable as it
appropriately sporty for high performance cars. |
|
A lighter
construction design brings a reduction in rolling resistance compared
to the Potenza RE050 |
