Wet braking from 80 km/h
≈34 m with class A, against ≈37 m for the most common class in this size (B).
Fuel efficiency
Class C, the most common class in this size: no difference to the typical tyre.
Rolling noise
72 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size (1 dB louder).
Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.
All 172 sizes
The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).

Questions
Is the Bridgestone Potenza Sport a quiet tyre?
Its declared rolling noise ranges from 68 dB to 75 dB (median 72 dB). In 34% of the sizes we could compare, it is at least as quiet as three quarters of same-size rivals.
How good is the Bridgestone Potenza Sport in the wet?
Its wet grip class is A–D. In 91% of compared sizes that is at least as good as three quarters of same-size rivals.
Is the Bridgestone Potenza Sport suitable for snow?
No size carries the 3PMSF symbol, so it is not certified for severe snow. In countries with winter tyre rules it does not count as a winter tyre.
When was the Bridgestone Potenza Sport launched?
It has been on the EU market since January 2021. The earliest production week in its registrations is 01/2021; the DOT code on the sidewall shows the week and year of your tyre.
