Product info:
Bridgestone Potenza RE040, 215 /45 R17 87V SL BSW TM


The Bridgestone Potenza RE40 performance tire was designed for your sports coupe or sedan. This tire features a tread compound formulated for dry and wet grip, allowing you to continue cruising even in changing weather conditions. To reduce the risk of hydroplaning, the tire uses circumferential grooves that channel water away from the tread area. And for great performance, the tires wide shoulder blocks provide confident handling during maneuvers. With its good traction and sport handling, the Bridgestone Potenza RE40 tire can give your sports car a performance boost.

Great tire for the price, a good value. I've been running this tire on a 2000 & 2007 Jetta GLI for several years. I recommend using this tire!

I'll never buy these tires again. They're expensive and they don't last at all. The ride is really rough, you can fell it when changing lane on the freeway.
