Bridgestone's roots date back to the establishment of Bridgestone Tire Co., Ltd. in 1931. Founder Shojiro Ishibashi was already a successful businessman, thanks to the creation of Jika-tabi (socks with rubber soles used as work shoes) and thriving rubber shoe trade. Passenger vehicles were growing more popular, and Ishibashi realized the potential in providing tires for this new mode of transportation, so he took revenue from his family business to start a tire company. Ishibashi used an English translation of his surname, stone bridge, to name his new venture. In the past two decades, Bridgestone® has taken a lot of steps to expand and diversify, including establishing new headquarters for their European and American operations, returning the Bridgestone brand to racing, and acquiring tire retreader Bandag, Inc. As Bridgestone approaches its 80th anniversary, the company remains committed to being a world leader in tire technology, developing the most advanced tires and rubber products and providing world class customer service.

Pretty Nice Tire
BRIDGESTONE® - POTENZA RE-71 RFT (RUN FLAT)
I put this tire on my 2013 Cadillac Ats. The tires offer amazing grip and handling, however, the road noise from these tires is terrible. This is definitely a performance oriented tire that handles amazingly.

I have them on my Acura. I'm happy with the tires and the grip is exceptional in dry and wet. Though the sidewall is definitely softer than the Potenza A/S tires I had on previously. The ride is better though. I haven't driven in snow so I can't comment on that. I would definitely purchase them again.
