Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 Tire Review   
Max Performance Summer Tire
The Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 summer tire is a solid around tire that excels in all conditions. This tire grips well on the track, taking turns nimbly and accelerates smoothly. The Potenza RE-11 also had the quickest time around the track with wet conditions. 
If you live in a place where it rains frequently and you want great performance this is your tire. Note that this is a performance summer tire which is meant to be driven dry and wet conditions, but not in the snow. 

Performance tires come with a pretty low profile which can sometimes translate into an uncomfortable ride when going over bumps and potholes. This was not the case with the Bridgestone Potenza RE-11. It provided a smooth and quiet ride.

Pros:
  • Outstanding wet and dry traction
  • Smooth and quiet ride 
  • Great cornering / handling

Cons:
  • No traction on snow / ice (these are high performance summer tires)
Conclusion:
The Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position is great high performance summer tire and a great value for this category. It performed well in all conditions even when driven very aggressively. Price ranges from about $100 to $300 depending on the tire size.
