Bridgestone Corp. unveiled a new Bridgestone Potenza concept tire at the 2007 North American International Auto Show in Detroit on Jan. 9.

The tire is being displayed on the Lexus LF-A sports car concept, size 265/35R20 in the front and size 305/30R20 in the rear.

"The concept tire represents a dynamic new expression of the Potenza brand," say Bridgestone officials.

Many Lexus luxury vehicles -- including the LS, GS, ES, and IS sedans, SC coupe, LX and GX utility vehicles and GS hybrid -- feature Bridgestone-brand tires as original equipment.
