Best tyre for dry handling, it's literally glued to asphalt in corners. Would recomend to a friend.
Bridgestone Potenza Sport Owner Reviews
Review this tyreWhat owners say summarised from 129 reviews
Owners generally rate the Bridgestone Potenza Sport as a very sporty road tyre, with strong dry and wet grip and sharp, precise steering feel. The main drawback is longevity: around one in three owners complain about fast wear, sometimes markedly so. Road noise is another common issue (raised by around one in four), while a smaller but notable group report a big drop in grip and confidence in cold weather.

A sporty tire, not very comfortable, with great steering/handling, stable at higher speeds (around 200 km/h) where the sidewall is hard (tougher than the Continental ContiWinterContact TS830 P, I checked that), the rim protection is really big and the noise is acceptable.

Changed the Potenza S001 RTFs to the new Sports quite recently. After one track day, one long road trip and a few weeks of daily commuting the observations as follows:
- on track the grip is better, but perhaps the RTF S001 had a harder structure as at times the new Sports feel a bit ’wobbly’ when really pushing to corners..
- on road trip and with fast driving the tyre is fantastic , good grip and stability
- daily driving way more comfortable vs the S001 RTFs sensitivity to road surface

Not realy comfortable like a ps4s michelin but in my opinion feels better on dry roads on high speeds.

I almost got PS4S but saw the Bridgestone chosen for some new supercars and as they were 30 Eur per tyre cheeper than the PS4S so I ordered them. Really impressed till now. In the dry they are great and grip straight from the garage in comparison to the old S001 and P-zeros that I had which needed some kilometers before gripping at all. The wet grip is also massive, first tires that let me enjoy the RS in the wet. Realy loving them for now.

Dry or wet, stability and road holding beyond all expectations, better than any competing tire.
A real guarantee.
The new benchmark.

Previously driven with the Michelin PS4S. And I was very interested in how the Bridgestone Potenza Sport tires would suit me. And gosh I like them. From sporty road driving to a lap at the Nurburgring! They provide a bizarre amount of grip and a great steering response. From my opinion very similar to the PS4S in all areas, only purely on steering response, the Potenza Sport beats the PS4S.

I always had my cars on UUHP tires from Michelin, GY, Conti, and Bridgestone over the past 20+ years. This year I opted for Potenza Sport and I really love them. I can see that I made the right choice - the grip is simply relentless and fantastic feedback from the tires. Aquaplaning is also fantastic, considering how much faster I was able to push the car with confidence on autobahn during the pouring rain. Straight tracking is precise and the car is completely responsive to every input. Overall they feel like PZERO PZ4, but on a higher level in each discipline. Awesome tires and I recommend them 100%
