Bridgestone Potenza RE92 

This is the OEM tire for my first-generation Honda Insight hybrid and I consider it about the only tire for this car because of the low rolling resistance on a car that can't afford to give up much horsepower to friction.

The tires handle well in both wet and dry conditions in my car and have responded perfectly to the few emergency maneuvers I have had with them. I'm not so impressed with the way my car handles in snow/slush/mud however - though I suspect it is the narrower track of the rear axle causing the squirmy feeling in the back not these tires.

I keep a pretty close eye on my tire pressure and have been running the max pressure on the sidewall, but lately have taken to running the pressure recommended by Honda. The tires are wearing uniformly but a little less in the center than on the shoulders. I prefer a tire that wears dead flat.

While driving at night I hit something in the road maybe the size of a muffler hanger (it wasn't large enough for me to see at 65) and my rear tire exploded. I can't help but wonder if another tire might have survived that encounter a bit more gracefully, but I never did find what I hit so it's hard to tell if the dramatic failure was excessive.

All in all, I'm not sure I'm thrilled with the tires, but they're at least decent in my application. I expect to get at least another 20k miles before replacing any for wear.

This is OEM tire on my 05 Civic. It's more sporty than I expected with quick response in mu daily drive. Never have any problem or hydroplaning on this set. This set has 50000 miles on them and they still have 5/32 left. I typically replace them at 3/32, soot may have another 8000 left. Some of the reviews here have too high an expection on it. It depends on driving styles and good rotation more than anything else. For OE tire, they are better than continental touring contact I have before. Will probably buy another set if on sale.

This is the second set on my Honda Insight,126,000 miles. Exceptional tire in all ways. Never any hesitation going 100 mph+.

I had three close calls with these tires trying to gradually slow down from only 30-mph. These tires have terrible traction; The rubber must be too hard. The tires currently have a lot of tred left, but I am forced to replace them because I had some serious close calls putting my life in danger because the tires would not stop the car, instead I would slide; and one time I slid into traffic [Luckily there were no cars coming at the time]. Terrible traction.

These tires came stock on my Civic. They ----. Don't buy them, there are far better options for less money. My biggest gripes with these tires are the wet traction. These would spin out all the time in wet weather. Starting on a hill was very tricky due to the poor traction. That made me feel uncomfortable with turns and bends in wet weather as well, so I'd take turns slower than I would with other tires.
As for cold weather. These tires were horrible in the snow, slush and ice. The rubber got really hard and even in cold/dry weather the tires performed poorly.

As for warm dry weather...they are ok. No real complaints. Not too noisy, not too hard. Average.

Overall, they are poor in the wet, cold, snow and slush. For other conditions they are average. There are better tires available for less money.

Why OEs like Lexus keep putting this tire on their cars at the factory is completely beyond me. This is the worst tire ever, and for over a grand for a set of four every 20,000 miles it just defies logic. Horrible wet or snow traction, and tread life is nonexistent. I have awesome 20" Bridgestone Alenzas on my Tahoe (first set went 86k in DC hard driving and I only replaced them when the rubber got so hard they squealed on corners--see that review), so I know Bridgestone can make great tires. Sadly, the RE92 is not one of them.
The dealer put the second set on my mother's car because she didn't know any better; now she needs a third set and the car only has 28k on it! That's two sets of RE92s in 28k! At almost $300 a tire! Bridgestone should be ashamed.
Replacing these with the Continental CWS. Will review them after 10k.

Poor tread wear. Dangerous on ice and snow. Poor traction. Poor on corners. Worst tire I have ever purchased,

These are on my 2010 Genesis Coupe OEM. Decided to buy a second set of winters as I live in Canada. Boy that was a good investment. These tires are poor in winter driving conditions. Having said that, after 32,000 miles the rears have 4/32 tread left, fronts have 6\32 and they are only on the car half the time. So will have to replace all 4 sometime this summer. I won't replace with this tire at $850 for just two rears.

Stock OEM tire that came new with my 2008 yaris. Tire was great overall. I got 56K out the set with no issues at all (mostly highway with city miles). Snow performance ----ed. I needed chains in the mountains in lite snow. Got stuck in a parking lot while everybody else was trouble free with all weather tires. Great performance on dry road with overly responsive steering, very smooth cornering and predictable. Best of all I got 56,000 miles out of the tires and probably still had 1-3k before clearly reaching the wear bars.



What really bothered me was road noise and harsh ride

I would have bought again if priced competitively

De-lamination of the tread on the inner 1/5 of all 4 tires is occurring. The tires are going back to the dealer for warranty return. I would estimate that 30% of potential tread life is remaining on the tires. It will be interesting to see how Bridgestone handles my warranty claim. The tires have been rotated every spring (I switch to winter tires in early winter every year). The ride of the Lexus on rough pavement and dirt roads is very disappointing due to the rough, bumpy ride characteristics of the tires. This may simply be a result of the low height ratio of the tires and not the fault of Bridgestone. It seems a bit ridiculous that manufacturers equip new vehicles with this style of tire (ie low height ratio) knowing that the ride quality(comfort and noise) on bumpy pavements will be predictably poor.

The Bridgestone Potenza RE92 were OEM tires on my 2016 Lexus IS200t. My driving is a mix of city/highway which can be spirited or average. Two of the four tires showed excessive wear on the shoulders to the point where the belts are visible. The two that don't have visible belts are worn to the thread wear indicators, so all four need replacing. I've never had tires wear this quickly on any vehicle in our family. Truly disappointing especially considering the price.

These tires came stock on my 2016 Lexus IS200T. I'm barely over 17,000 miles and they're completely bald. I drive a mix of city/hwy and very rarely any spirited driving. I can actually see the tread worn through in some areas. The Lexus dealer claimed some BS about the "alignment being sporty, causing these to wear down fast", when the tire tread is super soft and doesn't hold up to longevity. I've had sports cars that, with similar tires and spirited driving, lasted over 35k miles on the tire set. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THESE TIRES TO ANYONE.

My tires needed to be replaced at 18,000 miles. Tread was completely wore off. Inexcusable!!!
