Review on Bridgestone Potenza S001 225/40 R19 89Y summer by Mateusz Weber ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

Moderately comfortable and quiet, not at the expense of safety. There is a HUGE bead protecting the disc. The tire is actually wider than the advertised size. The massive sidewall inspires confidence (see the manufacturer's website), while there is NO expected drift along the track. Not afraid of blows. Balanced with a minimum amount of cargo She's a stupidly beautiful tire for a beautiful dynamic car. Subarovods squeak from her in delight, and citramons (citroenshchik) - rage and find fault with her. I am neither one nor the other))

Pros
  • 205/55-16 Purchase price 4350r. Absolutely controlled and controlled drifts on both dry and wet asphalt. The speed at the same roundabout increased from 65-70 on Pirelli P7 (NOT Centurato) to 80-90, if faster, all 4 wheels break off, BUT NO WHISTLE OF RUBBER! Braking is as expected, consistently good, albeit with less ABS and ESP intervention than before. Miracle didn't happen Accelerations are very efficient, as the tires hardly ever spin (unless specifically targeted), although the old P7 slipped easily in second gear. With this style, the pair is quickly erased on the drive axle (front)
Cons
  • Tires need to be warm! Necessarily! Hydroplaning is still there - a matter of speed, although not so critical and without sharp jerks and pulls to the side)) This is expected. I could not immediately pick up the pressure for these tires, since when pumping it becomes oaky, it starts to jump during acceleration, keeps its course worse and knocks hard at the joints; with under-pumping, I don’t know, this doesn’t work for me))) I stopped at the standard 2.2-2.3- no more, since it is strongly felt in motion.
