All Season tires

primary

This tire has a good warranty, which means that it's expected to last for 
                            a somewhat long time based on the tire type. Regular tire maintenance, such as rotation and 
                            alignment, and safe driving habits are key to ensuring this tire hits its stated mileage warranty.

Good Mileage Warranty

This tire has great wet traction, which means that drivers should 
                            expect strong grip on wet roads. As a general rule of thumb, traction can vary based on driving 
                            and maintenance habits and road conditions.

Great Wet Traction

This tire has a great speed rating, which means it can safely handle 
                            speeds between 130mph and 149mph without the risk of failure. As a general rule of thumb, 
                            posted speed limits should always be followed and proper tire maintenance and 
                            rotation can help prevent failure.

Great Handling

Potenza RE97AS RFT

Like  their name suggest, all season tires are designed to give drivers performance year-round. All-season tires often provide strong performance in dry and wet conditions, and suitable traction and grip in wintery weather.

Vehicle

This product is covered by a 40,000 mile manufacturer’s treadlife warranty. Merchandise covered by a manufacturer’s warranty is sold with the warranty by the 
        manufacturer extended to the purchaser. We will be happy to assist in obtaining fulfillment of a manufacturer’s 
        warranty. Other than applicable manufacturers’ warranties, there are no warranties, express or implied, 
        including any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The only tires SimpleTire can 
        warranty are brand new defects (meaning that they have not been mounted or driven on). Any bead damaged will be 
        void of any warranty claim. Any other adjustments should be taken to the nearest authorized dealer for that 
        manufacturer. Sometimes the manufacturer also provides a treadlife warranty and mileage rating. Please be aware 
        that not all tires hold a mileage warranty from the manufacturer. Different tire models, even from the same 
        manufacturer, may or may not come with a treadlife warranty.

Mileage Warranty

The maximum carrying capacity for a tire determined by the manufacturer.

Load Index

Maximum speed capability to safely carry a load for an extended period of time.

Max Speed

The maximum load carrying strength at the specified inflation pressure, also known as ply rating.

Load Range

The side of the tire between the tread and rim, with cosmetic branding as well as information about the tire including manufacturer, model, size, etc.

Sidewall

Standards that measure treadwear, temperature resistance and traction, example: "640 A A".  The 640 is the treadwear test and it lasted 6.4 times longer than the comparison tire tested against.  The first "A" is the traction rating using straight-line wet traction on test surfaces (see information tables tab) and the second "A" is the temperature rating by testing operation at high speeds without heat-related failure (see information tables tab).

UTQG

Wet Traction is a piece of the UTQG for example if  UTQG is: 500 AA A, the wet traction piece is the second piece, the "AA".

Wet Traction

Measured in 32nds of an inch, this metric shows how much tread life is left on a tire, with the tire's traction & stopping capabilities greatly diminished at 4/32nds and less. Tire manufacturers include "tire wear bars" at 2/32nds to indicate when your tire is worn out.

Tread Depth

The highest inflation pressure (measured in pounds of force per square inch, PSI) the tire is designed to contain, and should only be used when called for by the vehicle placard.

Inflation Pressure

An identifier of a particular tire line and size combination assigned by the tire manufacturer.

Part Number

Tread design (or tread pattern) can affect handling, traction & noise for different driving styles & road conditions.

Tread Design

Tire Weight

The measurement of width from a tires inner sidewall to the outer sidewall.

Section Width

The range of widths the rim of the vehicle can be for this tire to be safely mounted on.

Rim Range

The diameter of a tire that is inflated without any load applied.

Overall Diameter

This tire features run flat technology that’s designed to assist the driver during a puncture of pressure loss.

Run Flat

Low rolling resistance tires are designed to reduce the energy loss as a tire rolls, decreasing the required rolling effort, improving vehicle fuel efficiency.

Low Rolling Resistance

The Bridgestone Potenza RE97AS RFT tires generally perform well in dry and wet conditions, offering good grip, handling, and longevity. They are particularly praised for their value when purchased at competitive prices. However, their performance in snow and resistance to hydroplaning after extended use are areas of concern for some users. The tires seem best suited for drivers in areas with minimal snowfall who prioritize dry and wet road performance.
