The Bridgestone Potenza RE070R RTF is a summer extreme performance all-wheel drive tire. This tire is made for the Nissan GT-R super sports car. While the Potenza RE070R RFT provides dependable traction on wet and dry roads, it is not meant to be driven in snowy or icy conditions.

- Speed Rating Y indicates the tire’s maximum sustained speed capability under proper load and inflation. This is approximately 300 km/h under proper load and inflation.
- UTQG 140 A A is the manufacturer treadwear, traction, and temperature grading system. It is useful for comparing tires from the same brand, but it should not be treated as an exact mileage promise.
- Summer tires are built for warm weather grip and should not be used as winter tires in Ontario or Quebec cold weather conditions.
- Run flat tires can temporarily support the vehicle after pressure loss, allowing you to keep control and drive a limited distance to service. Note that they require a compatible vehicle setup and a working TPMS system.
