Our take

The Bridgestone Potenza RE92 is a solid choice for drivers seeking a performance all-season tire with good dry grip and handling. Its dry grip and handling scores both hit 8, aligning well with the expectations for spirited driving in this category. However, the treadwear warranty of 40,000 miles is a downside, falling short of the category average of 51,717 miles, which could lead to more frequent replacements.

In terms of wet grip, the RE92 scores a 7, slightly below the category average of 7.2. This might be a consideration for those who frequently drive in wet conditions, as competitors like the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 might offer better wet performance. The comfort and noise levels are average for the segment, providing a balanced ride without any standout features.

When compared to its competitors, the Potenza RE92 offers good handling and dry grip but lags in treadwear warranty and wet grip. The Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 and Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus may provide better overall performance, especially in wet conditions and longevity. If you prioritize dry performance and handling over longevity and wet grip, the RE92 could be a reasonable choice. However, if you need a tire that lasts longer and performs better in the rain, consider looking at other options.

Pros

  • Dry grip score of 8 matches the category's performance expectations, making it suitable for spirited driving.
  • Handling rating of 8 ensures responsive steering and control, aligning well with performance all-season standards.
  • Comfort score of 6 is on par with the category average, providing a balanced ride for daily use.

Cons

  • The 40,000-mile treadwear warranty is notably lower than the segment average, which could lead to more frequent replacements.
  • Treadwear warranty of 40,000 miles falls short of the category average of 51,717 miles, potentially increasing long-term costs.
  • Wet grip score of 7 is slightly below the category average of 7.2, which might affect performance in heavy rain compared to competitors like the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4.
  • The speed rating of 'R' is lower than typical for performance tires, which may limit high-speed capabilities.
