Ferrari chooses Bridgestone Potenza S007 runflat for Portofino convertible

Bridgestone has been selected by Ferrari to supply optional run-flat tires for the 600-cv 2+2-seater Ferrari Portofino convertible sports car. Bridgestone Potenza S007 run-flat tires will be supplied to the Ferrari plant in Maranello, Italy, in sizes 245/35ZRF20 (91Y) and 285/35ZRF20 (100Y) for clients requesting this fitment. In addition to being sold in Europe, the Ferrari Portofino convertible will be available for purchase in North America.



Bridgestone designed the UHP Potenza S007 run-flat tire with innovative materials and technologies to blend high G cornering with high-speed durability to match the Portofino's sporty handling. The asymmetric pattern design with wide outside shoulders featuring extra-stiff blocks enhances steering precision, response, and grip on dry surfaces. Wide circumferential grooves help channel water through the tire to maintain wet traction. The added reassurance of Bridgestone run-flat technology will allow drivers to maintain control of the vehicle after a puncture, to continue driving for up to 80km (50 miles) at up to 80km/h (50 miles per hour) and stop safely.
