285/35R18 Bridgestone Potenza S001 – Performance Summer
Category: Summer – Supreme Performance
The Bridgestone Potenza S001 is a max performance summer tire that is designed to be used on high performance sedans, sports cars and coupes. While the Potenza S001 provides dependable good traction on wet and dry roads, it is not meant to be driven in snowy or icy conditions.

Run flat design allows you to still drive a short distance despite having a puncture. Must be used with a compatible vehicle and TPMS.
What these tire specs mean
- Load Index 97 is the tire’s standardized carrying capacity, supporting up to 730 kg per tire. Use it to confirm the tire meets or exceeds the load rating listed on your vehicle placard.
- 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 280 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.
