The Bridgestone Potenza Sport AS 245/45R18 is an ultra high performance all-season tire designed for drivers of sportscars, coupes, and performance sedans who prioritize high-speed handling and year-round versatility in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and specialized compound focus on maintaining grip across varying weather conditions while delivering the responsive feel performance drivers expect.
The tire features a solid circumferential rib design that maintains continuous road contact for enhanced handling precision, while full-depth 3-D sipes molded into each tread block improve traction in light snow conditions.
