I have Bridgestone Potenza S001 by an accident to be honest but I do not regret at all. I used to have some other premium class tyre models but after this one I'm Bridgestone fan. This tyre has a very rigid sidewall which makes it very stable and hard to move out from the traction. I think that is the biggest advantage. Doesn't matter how cold it is this tyre performs as usually - remember that it is summer model which makes it quite impressive. I'm not able to make any opinion about external noise becouse I have pretty loud exhaust in my car. I like to drive aggressively and sometimes it happens that I do some drift on the curves but tread doesn't disappear immediately. Quite durable and strong tyre. Overall I would recommend for those who are looking for traction and confident driving and also for users who expect to use tyre for a longer time.

The best summer tyre I have had so far in my 16-year adventure behind the wheel.

I decided to purchase Bridgestone Potenza S001 after the advice from the friend of mine. It was realy good choice and I have nothing to regret. I didn't drive on them too much yet, just about 1800 miles but I can say without any doubt that it was not a mistake to buy them. Ideally keeps the vehicle on the road and it doesn't matter from the weather conditions. I'm normal and calm driver usually but sometimes when there is an opportunity I like to speed up a little and no difference in tyre performance even then. Really happy customer!

This tyre is magnificent both in the wet and in the dry; impossible to fault it, and in the rain it is magic you drive normally without any problem, to be recommended without any problem, go ahead with firm eyes.

After Michelin Pilot tyre and I must say that the return to michelin too much wear after 21000 kilometres do not pass the check to throw. Michelin has done almost 45,000 .... Nothing to say about the joint seems to be on the tracks!

Previously, I used Michelin tyres and they fell down quite quickly. I've been riding these Bridgestones for six months now and I don't see any signs of use. Tough but comfortable tyre with low wear rate. Much quieter than the previous ones I have had.

Expensive but worth the price. I travel season and already 2 of the present there is no problem with the tyre. Although I do care about the tyre pressure so that the countdown to many seasons ahead of me on these tyres.

If anyone has the money for these tyres - I can recommend them. I bought it in a large heavy car, and delighted with it.

I bought these tyres because I needed something durable and comfortable. This model combines these 2 positive features. I can compare them to the previous Continental and they have similar driving comfort and are much more durable, abrasion-resistant tyres
