The Potenza RE040 tyre is an Ultra High Performance Summer Original Equipment tyre designed to complement the performance of sports coupes and sports cars including the Acura NSX, Audi TT, BMW 3-Series, Lexus SC430, Nissan 350Z and Toyota MR2. The Potenza RE040 tyre was developed to provide good traction along with responsive and predictable dry and wet road handling. Like all summer tyres, the Potenza RE040 tyres are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.

On the outside, the Bridgestone Potenza RE040 tyre features a high grip tread compound molded into a subtly directional tread design. A continuous center rib and large rectangular tread blocks provide responsive handling, high-speed stability and traction on dry roads, while circumferential and lateral tread grooves are aimed to pump water out from under the tire's footprint to minimize hydroplaning and aid wet traction. Internally, the Bridgstone Potenza RE040 tyre features twin steel belts reinforced by spiral wrapped nylon to stabilize the tread area and enhance handling, high-speed capability and ride quality while minimizing weight. The fabric cord body and hard rubber sidewall filler helps blend uniform ride quality with steering response and lateral stability.
