About This Tire

The Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS+ 215/50R17 is a summer tire, designed for sedan and coupe drivers who prioritize responsive handling and dry road performance in warm weather conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on maximizing grip and steering precision during spirited driving and daily commuting.

This tire features Bridgestone's advanced silica-enhanced compound and asymmetric tread pattern engineered for summer driving conditions. The construction emphasizes contact patch optimization and heat dissipation to maintain consistent performance during acceleration, cornering, and braking. With no current driver evaluations available, real-world performance data is still being collected from users in various driving scenarios.

Compared to all-season tires, it emphasizes maximum dry traction and handling responsiveness over year-round versatility. Overall, it's a solid choice for performance-oriented vehicles used primarily for warm-weather driving in dry and wet summer conditions.
