What do you guys think about Bridgestone Potenza's? I bought my camaro SS with a set of Bridgestone Potenza's on it and I'm wondering if they are a good brand of tires to have. So far they seem ok with traction and they look ok. What do you guys think about them.

nice and expensive!!!
definitely up there with the better Goodyears, better Pirellis and Michelins
Bridgestone if you did not know is the premium line of tires, where as firestone are the mid-line up
similiar to BFGs being the mid-line for Michelins

What version are they? I've had RE92's and RE040's and didn't care for either - no experience with the rest of the Potenza lineup, but have heard good things about the S03's and RE050's FWIW.

I've had the older Potenza RE730s. They're an excellent tire but I never could find another set since the second gen. of these tires came out. Hood excellent, looked great.

Ive had the Potenza RE950's, RE910's, S02 pole positions.......liked the 950's the best because they grip like no tomorrow rain or dry but horrible in snow
I'm in Florida so these tires suited me best

Yeah mine are the RE750's. I think they are the nicest set Bridgestone makes for our ls1's. Anyway I had never really seen many people talk about the RE750's on here at all. It was just making me wonder if they were a good tire or not? Thanks

I use 750s on my street wheels for my track duty Honda, I am in love with them.
Not same as my slicks or R compounds but I still compete with street tires sometimes and they do well over 10K miles in great shape hold up in the rain awesome too.
Only down fall is the price but I got them on sale
I am huge potenza fan and hope to get some S03s next.
