Expert Verdict

The Potenza RE97AS RFT is a solid choice for drivers who value comfort and noise reduction, with the added benefit of run-flat technology. However, its lower treadwear rating and speed rating may not satisfy those looking for longevity or high-speed performance.

Pros
Comfort and noise scores of 8 make for a pleasant ride, aligning well with the grand touring all-season category expectations.
45,000-mile treadwear warranty offers a decent lifespan, though not the longest in the category.
Run-flat technology provides added security by allowing you to drive on a flat tire for a limited distance.
Cons
The lower treadwear rating of 400 compared to the category average may result in more frequent replacements.
Treadwear rating of 400 is below the category average of 683, suggesting a shorter lifespan compared to competitors.
The speed rating of 'R' is lower than many competitors, which could limit performance on higher-speed vehicles.
The Kumho Solus KH16 offers a longer treadwear warranty, which might appeal to those prioritizing longevity.
