Product description & features

The Bridgestone Potenza Sport tyre has been specially developed for the summer season to achieve maximum speed and manoeuvrability. Bridgestone has adopted hybrid technology in which aramid and nylon are mixed inside a tyre carcass. In addition, the asymmetric tread design has large tread blocks on the outer side for cornering, while longitudinal grooves are used for water removal. Sipes improve the braking efficiency by providing stiffer treads.

Potenza Sport is available in reinforced XL, run-flat, and run-flat reinforced versions. The Potenza Sport tyre is exclusive to the Lamborghini Huracán STO as a summer performance tyre. Tyres.co.uk stocks all variants of the Potenza Sport tyre.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread with larger outer blocks
  • Front-to-back water grooves
  • Reinforced XL and run-flat versions
