The Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus is a tire that offers uncompromising ultra-high performance and excellent performance in various weather conditions. It is an improved version of its predecessors, providing even more thrilling performance, better wet weather traction, and improved stopping power in winter weather. The tire features an all-season rubber compound that offers flexibility across different temperatures, ensuring better grip throughout the year. The Potenza RE980AS Plus is designed with a classic five-rib tread pattern, which optimizes rubber placement for enhanced handling and excellent starting and stopping grip. This tire also incorporates four wide circumferential grooves and open shoulder slots to effectively channel water away, reducing the risk of hydroplaning. Another notable feature is the full-depth 3D interlocking sipes, which not only provide confident all-season grip but also stabilize the tread pattern for improved handling response. The chamfered slots enhance braking performance in wet and dry conditions, while the wide outer shoulder blocks and semi-solid rib tread pattern ensure instant steering feedback and straight-line stability. Despite its high-performance capabilities, the Potenza RE980AS Plus is built to last. Bridgestone has designed this tire with a durable rubber compound and interlocking sipes that resist uneven treadwear, resulting in a longer-lasting tread life. The tire is backed by a 50,000-mile manufacturer's warranty, and Certificates for additional tire protection are also available for purchase. These Certificates provide hassle-free coverage and guarantee a brand new replacement tire if the covered tire is damaged beyond repair. With the Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS Plus, drivers can enjoy thrilling performance and peace of mind, regardless of the weather conditions.
