Bridgestone Potenza Sport review

“These will be my new tires for this summer. They are newcomer to my wished UUHP "PSS" class, and unlike rest of new tires (MPS4S, CS6, GY F1 SS) that in Europe are available at best starting at 18" sizing (probably due new GRMN Yaris), these Potenza Sport are in 17" size aswell, and are priced surprisingly cheap.”

“Just replaced my set of Potenza Sport AS. 2 side wall failures with 70% tread left. Replaced them with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4s. Michelin's are a much better riding tire than the Bridgestones. A little more road noise though.”

“Trying Bridgestone Potenza Sports for summers with simple Spirt Edition A19 wheels Last fall I put Blizzaks WS90s on the stock rims, and had a confident time this winter. I love the stock Mazda rims and intended to swap on a set of performance summer tires. However decide to go with aftermarket wheels that match the stock as much as I could afford, so here they are. 19X8 SPORT EDITION A19 DARK GREY 225/45R-19 BRIDGESTONE POTENZA SPORT I love the look of the new rims maybe even more than the stock now that they are on simple as they are. Will have to see how the tires behave. I may decide to go back to a set of Conti DwS HiPer All-Seasons next year. Read more”

“Bridgestone Potenza Sport Anybody running potenza sports? My rear right tire inside sidewall got shredded suddenly at highway speed (85+ mph). Fortunately I did not lose control and was able to move the car to a nearby school parking lot with a spare. Ordered a set of DWS06+ and they should be delivered tomorrow. The tires are a little more than 4 years old and had about 12k miles on them. Kind of bummed at the situation, but this could’ve been much worse. Are potenza sports generally that bad? Read more”

“Just moved to set a set of CSC7's. 265/35/20 and 305/30/20. They were a really good price. I moved from the Bridgestone Potenza Sport which is also a great tyre, but it becomes unpredicatable sub 12ºC or so, which is a shame. So far, the Conti's have been great and I'm keen to see how they handle the supercharger. The latest reviews of the CSC7 are really good - scooping all the top spots. Sadly the PS4S is old in comparison now, which can be seen in recent reviews with the new Goodyeaar Eage F1 Asymetric 6 and Pirelli P Zero PZ4 often ranking above the Michelin in test scores. That's not to say the Michelin has suddenly become bad - it is still a great tyre, it is just that there are now alternatives out there; most likely why the new Pilot Sport S 5 is coming soon.”

“Hey Mike: Yeah I just looked at the Continentals you mentioned. That is the same size tire on my 24 Hell Cat Durango ! Interesting. So I went to the Costco website and checked out that size. They don't sell continental , but I was looking at the all-season4 Michelin Pilot. That size has the UTQG: 540, and says 45K mileage warranty. No doubt pro-rated warranty, I'd say. $501 each, that includes mount & Balance, but I have a $16 tire disposal fee for NC. They have a $80 rebate on four right now too. Costco, has some Bridgestone Potenza sport AS but they get noisy as they wear. I had a QX56 that came with those tires , and they were whining pretty good at 16K. I don't recommend them. Sort of like goodyears. And they also have the run flat Pirellis . Scorpion All season Run -flat UTQG of 600 but I bet that is noisy! $583 ! They are very proud of them LOL yeah Mike, if you have doubts, get the Michelins and be done with it. That's what I do when I have conflict on tire decisions, usually more expensive, but I am not ever disappointed with the Michelins . That' just me. I'll have to look and see what the next bigger size of the tire that will fit our rim. have a good one!”
