Potenza RE050 RFT

The Bridgestone Potenza RE050 RFT is a max performance summer run flat tire loaded with race-inspired technology.

Original equipment on many high-performance vehicles, the Potenza RE050 RFT is built for the pleasure of driving. This tire comes loaded with race-proven technology: UNI-T for outstanding wet and dry traction, a tread pattern that promotes rapid water evacuation, variable dimensions in the tread blocks, and the smoother shape to reduce road noise. Put this Potenza through its paces and discover what ultra-high performance really means.

Innovative Tire Design - A Comprehensive Tire Design Method
This method improves handling in wet or dry conditions and reduces irregular treadwear by combining an ideal tread design, casing shape, materials and construction.

Innovative Roundness - Rounder Is Better
Rounder overall tire shape provides better balance for wet or dry handling.

Innovative Compound - Longer Is Stronger
L.L. Carbon utilizes a special form of molecular re-engineered carbon black, a key factor in improving tire wear while enhancing wet performance.

Rim Guard
A raised rubber ridge acts like a bumper to protect wheels from curb damage.

Spiral Wrap
Spiral Wrap is a continuous nylon wrap that encircles the whole tire, helping the tire hold its original shape to improve high speed capability.

A tires speed rating denotes the maximum permitted speed that the tire can sustain for 10 minutes without being in danger. Speed ratings are determined through lab tests that simulate road performance.
The Uniform Tire Quality Grading System (UTQGS) allows consumers to compare tire treadwear, traction performance, and temperature resistance. The U.S. Department of Transportation National Highway Safety Administration mandates tire manufacturers to grade their tires in these three areas and place the information on the sidewall of the tire.
Most tires are covered by a limited warranty that certifies the workmanship and the overall quality of the tire. Limited warranties typically last 4 to 6 years from the purchase date, or until the tires original tread is worn to 2/32nds of inch.
Ply rating identifies the load carrying capabilities of a tire in terms of plies. The ply rating originally referred to the number of cotton layers used to strengthen a tires casing.
Popular types of tires are All Season, Touring, Performance, Ultra High Performance, Original Equipment, Winter, All Terrain, Mud, and Commercial. Most sacrifice some aspect of their performance in order to strengthen another to match the expectations and driving styles of different people and vehicles.
A tire’s load index indicates the amount of a weight each tire can support. The higher a tires load index number, the greater the load-carrying capabilities.
