The Bridgestone Potenza RE070 summer tire is part of the factory equipment of the Subaru Impreza WRX STI 2004-2007 and Honda S2000 CR 2008-2009. The model belongs to the UHP category and has the corresponding operational characteristics.
Aggressive Asymmetric Tread
The distinctive feature of the asymmetric tread is the massiveness of the elements contained in it. This significantly increases the size of the contact patch, which improves the traction properties on dry pavement.
Stability in Turns
The tread pattern is divided into several functional areas. The largest of these is the shoulder area on the outside. This part of the tread has exceptional stiffness and resistance to the action of lateral acceleration forces, which provides the tire with excellent traction in turns and a sporty, precise handling.
Stable Behavior at High Speed
Another functional area is the solid longitudinal rib that runs exactly along the center of the tire. Its "sphere of responsibility" is stable behavior and directional stability during straight-line motion.
Efficiency during Acceleration and Braking
The inner side of the tread is distinguished by a high content of traction edges. Almost all of them have a transverse direction, which is due to their purpose. This ensures the maximum efficiency of the tread during longitudinal accelerations, i.e. during acceleration and braking.
