Bridgestone Potenza S007 Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 8 reviews

The Bridgestone Potenza S007 earns its clearest praise for dry grip, with three favourable comments and none critical, but overall owner opinion is mixed. Four of eight written reviews are positive, and the average score is 59.1%. Standing water is the main recurring concern, with three owners reporting poor aquaplaning resistance, while two find the ride hard or uncomfortable. Tread-life comments are less reassuring, but the small number of later-life accounts limits any firm mileage judgement. The strongest support is for dry-road performance, with clear reservations about everyday comfort and heavy-rain behaviour.

Initial Impressions
These tyres perform satisfactorily in the dry. They wear quicker than other tyres I have had. However today whilst driving at a reduced speed due to rainfall all 4 wheels lost contact with road surface due to water and I nearly crashed. I was driving in an extended following position and at a speed appropriate to the conditions like I have done so many times in similar cars on different tyres. I have now ordered a set of P Zeros despite the Bridgestone only having done 4000 miles. I want them off as soon as possible as thry are unsafe in heavy rain.

Had the RS stamped ones as oe for my 2019 megane rs 300 trophy. Great on track and really suit the car working with the excellent chassis. Downside is very hard tyre with the already stiff ride and poor in standing water. Had to drive at 40mph on a motorway due to standing water as the car was aquaplaning. Fantastic if your "on it" but a bit much day to day

I drive an Audi S5 boosted to 440hp and needed a tyre to cope. The Potenza performs extreamly well. I'm not sure about wear rates yet but its a soft tyre so not expecting high miles.

I purchased these tyres for my 5 series as they are on various websites. However my first set on the rear lasted 6000 miles. Contacted Bridgestones and spoke with their technical team who said these are a very high performance tyre and not designed for a 5 Series. They are really only designed for an 8 and anything other than an 8 will result in premature wear. My previous Michelin Pilot Sports which I feel are superior lasted in excess of 30000 miles. Not happy at all. Will not buy Bridgestones again. No website that sells these has that advice.

These tyres were fitted to my DB11 AMR as original equipment and so far they seem good.
My previous car was a Jaguar F Type fitted with Pirelli Pzero, there doesn't seem to be much difference between them but I always like to use the OEM

These came fitted to my Audi RS4 from the factory and I have been very pleased with the tyres. They have performed better than any Michelin Pilot Sport tyre I have previously run on my RS4's including the Super Sport. In fact, I've been so impressed that I shall get another set fitted come spring time, instead of waiting for the new Michelin PS4.
