{"product_id":"potenza-s001-rft-ultra-high-performance-summer-tire","title":"Potenza S001 RFT Ultra-High-Performance Summer Tire","description":"The Bridgestone Potenza S001 RFT is an ultra-high-performance (UHP) summer tire designed to deliver exceptional performance, grip, and traction for high-end sports sedans and coupes. As Bridgestone's first run-flat tire for the replacement market, introduced in 2011, it offers the unique benefit of continuing to drive for up to 50 miles at speeds up to 50 mph after a loss of air pressure.\n\nEngineered with advanced technologies, the Potenza S001 RFT utilizes Cooling Fin technology to manage tire heat, and Nano-Pro-Tech in its sidewall rubber to minimize friction when air pressure is lost. The tire's asymmetrical tread pattern combines blocks and slick elements for improved braking and traction, complemented by a strong center rib for precise steering response and overall superior handling. Its multi-performance blocks, particularly the enlarged and reinforced outside block, enhance both dry and wet traction and handling. Additionally, the GUTT II Simulation technology, featuring straight grooves, efficiently disperses water to mitigate the risk of hydroplaning.\n\nWhile offering significant performance advantages, the Potenza S001 RFT has specific considerations. It should not be used in temperatures consistently below 45 degrees Fahrenheit. Some user feedback indicates it may not be the most comfortable ride and can be steeply priced. Furthermore, a detailed user review noted that the run-flat technology, while enabling continued driving after a flat, can cause significant internal tire damage, and a sidewall rupture occurred on a replacement tire shortly after.","brand":"Bridgestone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687299117368,"sku":"023852","price":321.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/661174355.webp?v=1784882350","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/potenza-s001-rft-ultra-high-performance-summer-tire","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
