Category: Summer – Ultimate Performance
The Bridgestone Potenza RE-71RS is a dedicated summer tire with ultimate performance capabilities. It delivers track type handling while allowing you to run the same tire to and from the course. The Potenza RE-71RS has a highly asymmetric tread pattern with high-grip polymers designed for maximum dry grip. Solid ribs and low-angle grooves enhance lateral stiffness while beveled circumferential grooves to help support cornering and hydroplane resistance.

- Speed Rating V indicates the tire’s maximum sustained speed capability under proper load and inflation. This is approximately 240 km/h under proper load and inflation.
- UTQG 200 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.
