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.
