Fiat Abarth 124 Spider Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A given 87% (205-45-17-)

These tyres came on my car from factory when I purchased my 124 Spider brand new. I got 38k kms out of them before I replaced them with the exact same spec of tyre. Dry handling is phenomenal, wet grip is good until the tyre starts to get worn out. Had minimal wet grip and instances of aquaplaning just before I replaced them with a new set of RE050A's. Comfort is not the greatest but that is to be expected with a proper UHP tyre. Tyre cost is very pricey but it does everything you want an UHP tyre to do. I will consider other options next time as i don't believe they live up to their price but they are a good tyre.

Fitted these tyres myself, noticed a hard feeling sidewall straight away. While mounting to wheels.

I find there is not a great choice of tyre at this size. I love how Potenza Sport has performed. But would love to be able to try Goodyear Eagle F1 SS, Continental EC2 etc but most of these higher performance sizes are either North America exclusive or 18 inch and above.

I’ve had a look around and considered going to a cup 2 type tyre but live in Scotland and don’t feel it’s worth the flight maybe gain in performance for the lack of in the rain.

I will likely buy Potenza Sport again as I cannot fault them and they are still the best option for my needs in this size. Superb feel, and unbelievable in the rain. Gives unbelievable confidence in bad conditions and for a tyre that handles so well in the dry it’s fantastic.
