235/45R18 Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus – All Season Performance
Category: All Season – Ultra High Performance
The Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus with a new compound gives you all-season grip and handling in both wet and dry conditions and adds intense stopping power in the winter. Open shoulder slots help channel water away from the contact patch to reduce hydroplaning while 3D full depth sipes and chamfered slots provide reliable wet and dry braking. The Potenza RE980AS Plus is built to compete as a best performer in the ultra-high performance all-season tire category. It also has a 80,000km tread life warranty for all sizes.
XL (Extra Load) rating supports higher inflation pressure and carrying capacity than standard load tires.
What these tire specs mean
Load Index 98 is the tire’s standardized carrying capacity, supporting up to 750 kg per tire. Use it to confirm the tire meets or exceeds the load rating listed on your vehicle placard.
Speed Rating W indicates the tire’s maximum sustained speed capability under proper load and inflation. This is approximately 270 km/h under proper load and inflation.
UTQG 500 AA 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.
All Season tires are made for mild year round driving, but they generally do not meet Quebec winter tire requirements unless they also carry 3PMS.
XL means Extra Load. These tires are designed to carry higher loads at higher inflation pressures than a standard load tire in the same size, which matters for heavier vehicles, loaded vehicles, or factory fitments that require XL.
Vehicle Type helps identify whether the tire is intended for passenger, light truck, commercial, or similar service categories.
Warranty coverage is manufacturer backed and depends on normal use, proper maintenance, rotation, inflation, and alignment conditions.
