Bridgestone Adrenalin RE002 Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 88 reviews

Owners of the Bridgestone Adrenalin RE002 most consistently praise dry grip, followed by wet grip, with handling and steering feedback also well regarded. Quiet running and ride comfort attract substantially more praise than criticism. Wet grip is less unanimous than dry grip, with complaints from around one in ten, sometimes about abrupt loss of grip near the limit. Tread life is more divided, with ten critical accounts against 17 favourable ones and varying longer-use experiences. Later reviews written by the same people remain mixed rather than showing a consistent decline as the tyre wears.

I find this tire suits my car and driving style. They feel nice and progressive into corners with good exit characteristics. Braking is as good as the RE050's I have had on other cars. They are quiet on the tarmac and I reckon are wearing well to date.

I replaced my rear RE001 after it has done 60,000 km with 4 rotations.
RE002 is great on the road. It's road holding is as good as RE001 or even better. I am looking forward to replace the front RE001 with RE002. RE001 is from Japan and RE002 is from Indonasia.

Very progressive tyre when warmed up at the limit with tons of grip. Fuel consumption and comfort as expected for a pure sport tyre for road use, noise lower than expected. Would highly recommend for a 16" sports tyre with no major disadvantages in fast driving, unlike most of its competitors that either wear/overheat/let go abruptly/have poor turn in. The only question mark for me is how easily they will warm up in colder weather, for moderately powered cars anyway.

I bought these 5 five mounths ago replacing re050a,I regret... . Re050a are better!. The shoulder of re002 is very soft and so it very confortable tyre, in wet condition this tyre is excellent, but in dry the response of steering is inaccurate and soft. So I bought yet re050a...really sport tyre!

I was initially weary of internet reviews and claims about these tyres - Almost concluded that they surly are over rated condiering the price of them. However due to unavailability of my first choice I proceeded to fit RE002s all round to a 2002 Alfa Romeo 156 V6. I came from Goodyear Eagle GSD3s and I would have to compare the gri and cornering as similar. Comfor is good even steeping up from 16 to 17". Road noise is minimal too.
