Description

Bridgestone's Potenza RE-71RS is an extreme performance summer tire designed for sports cars, performance sedans and enthusiastic drivers who participate in high-performance driving events and track days. 

  • Developed with advanced technologies used in motorsports tires 
  • The RE-71RS is a road and track legal tire 
  • It offers superior cornering grip, precise handling and increased durability

The Potenza RE-71RS offers superior cornering grip and blazing lap times to help you succeed every time you hit the track.

The RE-71RS is built to deliver impressive levels of grip and precise handling on the road.

The highly asymmetrical pattern is molded from a tread compound that uses high-grip polymers developed for racing and designed to maximize dry grip. 

The optimized footprint of the Potenza RE-71RS helps manage contact pressure in high-speed turns for more even distribution. This optimization allows the tire to exploit every bit of available contact patch while helping to prevent areas of high heat generation, encouraging even wear in competitive environments.

With improved wear resistance, the Bridgestone Potenza RE-71RS allows you to enjoy more exhilarating weekends on the same set of tires.

The Potenza RE-71RS's solid circumferential ribs are designed to help ensure quick, precise steering response at the limit in demanding cornering events.

The internal construction of the Potenza RE71-RS consists of a rugged two-ply polyester carcass designed to improve steering response. 

Twin steel belts provide a lightweight and durable tread base.

Like all Extreme Performance Summer tires, the Potenza RE-71RS is not designed to be maintained, stored or driven in near-freezing temperatures, snow or ice.
