Bridgestone has been selected as the sole tyre provider for Lamborghini’s new Fenomeno, a limited-production supercar created to celebrate two decades since Lamborghini’s design team in Sant’Agata Bolognese completed its first in-house vehicle. Only 29 units of the Fenomeno will be built, each showcasing a 1080-horsepower V12—the most powerful engine ever fitted to a Lamborghini road car. The model also claims the brand’s quickest acceleration figures, reaching 100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds and 200 km/h in 6.7 seconds.
Bridgestone, serving as Lamborghini’s official technical partner, has developed a tailor-made tyre solution engineered specifically for the Fenomeno’s performance demands. Drawing on its motorsport background and the heritage of its Potenza series, Bridgestone’s engineers created tyres to support the car’s extreme power and precision handling.
The custom Potenza Sport tyres come in 265/30 ZRF21 front and 355/25 ZRF22 rear sizes. These ultra-high-performance tyres offer high-speed stability, sharp handling response, and incorporate Run Flat Technology (RFT), allowing the car to continue safely for up to 80 km at speeds up to 80 km/h following a puncture—even at zero air pressure.
In addition to the road-focused Potenza Sport, the Fenomeno will also offer an optional semi-slick version of the tyre—designed for track-ready grip while still approved for street use. These versions will be produced in 20- and 21-inch configurations and tuned specifically to support the full capabilities of the Fenomeno.
“Our collaboration with Lamborghini continues to grow through our shared commitment to pushing performance boundaries,” said Radoslaw Bolkowski, Vice President of OE Sales at Bridgestone EMEA. “With the Fenomeno, our objective was to match the engineering excellence of Lamborghini’s most potent V12 with tyres capable of delivering control, stability, and precision in every driving scenario.”
Christian Mastro, Lamborghini’s Marketing Director, added, “Tyres are critical to how a supercar performs. Nearly 70 percent of modern improvements in dynamic capability come down to tyre advancements. Bridgestone understands this deeply, and their bespoke Potenza offering ensures the Fenomeno performs at the highest level.”
The Fenomeno is the latest in a series of Lamborghini vehicles equipped exclusively with Bridgestone tyres. Over the last five years, this partnership has extended across the entire supercar lineup—including the Huracán STO, STJ, Tecnica, EVO, Sterrato, Revuelto, and Temerario.
The tyres for the Fenomeno were developed in Italy using Bridgestone’s advanced Virtual Tyre Development (VTD) process. This method streamlines product development by drastically reducing the need for physical prototypes—cutting traditional material use and emissions. The digital approach reduces raw material consumption and CO₂ output by as much as 60% during tyre development, while also shortening timelines by up to half.
