Expert Verdict

The Potenza RE97AS-02 is best for drivers who value comfort and quietness on the road, making it suitable for long highway commutes. However, its lack of a treadwear warranty and lower UTQG rating might be a concern for those looking for long-term durability.

Pros
Comfort and noise scores of 8 make it a pleasant choice for long highway drives, aligning well with the grand touring focus.
Dry and wet grip scores of 7.5 provide balanced performance across different weather conditions, suitable for all-season use.
Handling score of 7.5 ensures predictable and stable driving, which is crucial for a grand touring tire.
Cons
Lack of a treadwear warranty and a lower UTQG rating suggest shorter lifespan, which could increase long-term costs.
No treadwear mileage warranty is offered, which is unusual in the grand touring segment and could affect long-term value.
UTQG treadwear rating of 400 is below the category average of 683, indicating potentially shorter lifespan compared to competitors.
The Michelin MXV3-A offers better treadwear longevity, making it a more durable option for those prioritizing tire life.
