Tyre reviews Bridgestone Potenza RE050. Page 1 504
- Rate
About a year ago, I bought a Subaru Legacy 2007 model, which was standing in a garage for 9 years. On it, the original BRIDGESTONE POTENZA RE050 215/45/R17 tyres were still on. Over 8 years, the car had a total of 6,000 km on it, then my friend drove it for 14,000 km in a year, and in my hands for half a year, it was 25,000

When I bought the car, I got Michelin
comfort Primacy. Wear is small, but I didn't like them - too loud, don't hold the road well.
I bought Bridgestone RE 50 big time - similar to sports, stable tyres.
The tyres have one advantage, they enter the turns at a speed of 60 without any problems, the car doesn't even notice them, perfectly holds the curves and doesn't drift- Vehicle:

Great tire.
Holds the road.
Noisey? Take a Continental or something and then don't complain that the car leans, the tire is going to break, the stability is rubbish...
Did the last season with tyres that were cracked but did not lose air.
Replaced with winter tyres when the snow fell.
Will put on Bridgestones again for summer.

Perfect for low-profile tires in Russian conditions. I've caught myself in numerous potholes, thinking the wheel would come off, but the tire managed to cope perfectly. No scratches, and you'd have to try hard to puncture it.
The tire is highly resistant to wear. You can drive a lot on it, and I'm sure it'll last for at least 3 seasons.

I've been riding on this tire since I bought the car. No complaints, it's a great tire, meets all my needs. Just bought a new one, the old one is done, worked perfectly until its time was up. Also, Bridgestone Adrenalin for summer)

I've been using them for a year (10,000 km), and they were on the car from the previous owner. The size is 225/45 R17 91W. Very loud. The turns are very smooth, and there's no hint of a wheel spin. I didn't drive fast on a wet road (max 80 km/h), and there were no issues. The sidewalls of all tires are severely cracked, but they don't leak. They transmit all road irregular

Review one: rumbling noise... On my rear axle, on the other one in Audi A4 it's completely unacceptable opinion. Expensive, rumbling, sharp wear. Misha PS2 - rumbling, beats the ears, Misha PS3 - expensive, sharp wear (almost worn out). I will try Hankook... and Pirelli P7 Centurato are very good in "Y".

The grip of this tire falls off very quickly in high temperature conditions. I live in Italy, where in summer time the road surface can easily reach 40 degrees. In this state it feels like you're driving on a wet road with increased concern for insufficient and poor braking grip. When the temperature is cooler the tire is fine.

Stiff and noisy tires at a very high price
Despite the excellent qualities on dry asphalt, comfort and traction on water do not withstand any criticism.
Pros: Handling on dry asphalt, durability.
Cons: Stiffness, weight, noise.- Control on a dry road

I like this JD on MAZDA 3 (BK) 2003.
Respected, what tires did you drive on, RE050 or RE040? Two reviews on the same car at the same time. Did you simultaneously have different tires on, or did you change them every week? The impression is that you're just racing.
