Models and prices

Japan — Bridgestone Corporation. On neither D1’s registered list nor Formula Drift’s approved table.

In the 265/35R18 price ladder on the directory: POTENZA RE-71RZ ¥88,110 (税込). Every brand at that size, side by side →

Japan’s biggest tyre company is on neither approved list, has no drift model, and its 2026 motorsport plan does not contain the word drift once. Its competition home is gymkhana. We include it because at ¥88,110 for a 265/35R18 it is the number that explains the whole page: that is roughly six times a SHIBATIRE 240 in the same size, and drift grids destroy rear tyres by the set.

What owners report

Too few to count: not counted — not a drift tyre. The brands with enough reviews are compared on the directory.

Buying BRIDGESTONE from Japan

Tyres are heavy and the cheap lanes close to them, so we buy domestically and quote the freight as one total — and tell you when buying locally beats importing. Send us the size and compound you want.
