Bridgestone Potenza RE980 A/S Plus
Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus
When you demand ultra-high performance thrills and weather-ready skills, you need a tire that doesn’t compromise. That tire is the Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus.
Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus Features
Back and better than ever, the Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus puts the power of year-round sporty performance in your hands. Building on the powerful foundation of previous iterations, the RE980AS Plus doles out more thrilling performance, more wet weather traction and more stopping power in winter weather. No need for the changing of seasons to slow down your sporty coupe or sedan!
With a new and improved all-season rubber compound, the Potenza RE980AS Plus provides more flexibility across a wider range of temperatures. That means better grip in summer, fall and winter, no matter the forecast.
And if cornering control and stopping power are a concern, then you’ll love the Potenza RE980AS Plus. This all-season superhero is built on a classic five-rib tread design that’s an homage to the previous iteration. That means the RE980AS Plus features an asymmetric tread pattern that optimizes rubber placement for snappy handling and powerful starting and stopping grip. And thanks to its brilliant all-season design, you don’t give up an inch of performance no matter how many inches of rain you face!
Other performance features of the Potenza RE980AS Plus include:
-
Four wide circumferential grooves and open shoulder slots channel water out of the tire’s path, reducing the risk of hydroplaning
-
For confident all-season grip year round, this tire features full-depth 3D interlocking sipes that also stabilize the tread pattern for enhanced handling response
-
Chamfered slots add extra bite for powerful braking in wet and dry weather
-
For instantaneous steering feedback and straight-line stability that thrills, look to the wide outer shoulder blocks and semi-solid rib tread pattern
