Potenza S-02A tires are Bridgestone's Max Performance Summer tires developed for high performance sports cars. Developed for Original Equipment use on selected Ferrari and Porsche vehicles, they were designed to combine responsive and predictable handling with exceptional levels of traction. Potenza S-02A tires are tuned for dry and wet road conditions, however like all summer tires, are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
Potenza S-02A tires feature Bridgestone's UNI-T (Ultimate Network of Intelligent Tire Technology) that uses design, construction and tread compound features to enhance tire performance.
Potenza S-02A tires feature a high-grip tread compound molded into a directional tread design with stable shoulders, notched intermediate ribs and a continuous center rib to provide responsive dry-road handling, high-speed stability and traction. Lateral tread notches help pump water from under the tire's footprint into circumferential grooves to resist hydroplaning and enhance wet traction. Their internal structures include twin steel belts reinforced by a spirally wrapped cap ply combined with spirally wrapped belt edge strips to minimize weight while stabilizing the tread area to enhancing handling and high-speed capability. The polyester or rayon cord body incorporates a wire-reinforced hard rubber sidewall filler to help blend ride quality with handling stability.
El neumático Potenza S-02A de Bridgestone pertenecen a la categoría: Máximo Rendimiento Para Verano y fueron diseñados para autos deportivos de alto rendimiento. Desarrollado como equipo original (O.E. por sus siglas en inglés) en modelos selectos Ferrari y Porsche, el diseño de estos neumáticos combina maniobrabilidad y respuesta predecible, con niveles de tracción extraordinarios. El Potenza S-02A están afinados para su uso sobre superficies secas y mojadas, pero como todo neumático de verano no fue diseñado para ser utilizado en temperaturas cercanas al nivel de congelación o superficies con hielo o nieve.
También posee la tecnología UNI-T de Bridgestone que utiliza un diseño, características de construcción y un compuesto de caucho, para aumentar el rendimiento del neumático.
El Potenza S-02A posee un compuesto de caucho de fuerte agarre moldeado en una banda de rodamiento con un diseño direccional. Hombros estables, segmentos intermedios casi continuos y un segmento central continuo, proporcionan maniobrabilidad responsiva sobre carreteras con superficies secas, estabilidad a velocidades elevadas y tracción. Ranuras laterales en los segmentos intermedios ayudan a bombear el agua hacia los canales circunferenciales y fuera del área de contacto con la carretera, esto aumenta la tracción sobre mojado y la resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning).
Internamente, correas gemelas de acero son reforzadas por una capa envuelta en espiral, combinada con correas de soporte en los hombros, para minimizar el peso y estabilizar el área interior de la banda de rodamiento, al vez de aumentar el control y la capacidad del neumático a velocidades elevadas. Los cordones de poliéster o rayón incorporan un relleno de caucho duro en los flancos, que son reforzados por alambre, para ayudar a combinar la calidad del andar con mayor estabilidad al maniobrar.
