Tire: Potenza RE960AS Pole Position RFT
Category: Ultra High Performance All-Season
UTQG (treadwear): 400 AA A
As the name of this tire implies, this is the run flat version (so you can drive about 50 miles after a puncture) of the Bridgestone Potenza RE060AS Pole Position that we have previously reviewed. I'd recommend heading over there to check out the full details, but I'll point out a few different things about this tire that seem relevant to me. One cool aspect of this tire is that it utilizes 3G RFT technology to produce nearly the same ride quality as the conventional tire, which is important because most drivers prefer the ride and performance of the non-RFT tire. The RFT version of this tire offers similar mileage as the conventional, which means you could be seeing over 60,000 miles out of a set, which is really impressive for this performance category.
