Bridgestone R250ED
This model is a heavy-duty all-position tire developed especially to provide enhanced traction, carrying capacities, tread wear, and extra load/people safety. It is designed to be used in mixed service applications, regional P&D applications, but also to be fitted on busses and coaches.
The R250ED comes with a heavy-duty tread compound molded into an optimized tread pattern that presents a five-rib with a large footprint for better pressure distribution providing increased mileage, adherence, and more stability. It uses a variable tread depth such as 19/32”, and 18/32” deep tread pattern to promote casing durability, managing road shocks, and other hazards. Bridgestone engineers use cutting-edges technologies designed to limit energy loss for lower rolling resistance.
For safety reasons this model has special protector ribs on both sidewalls designed to fight damage from curbing, cuts and abrasions. Four wide, deep circumferential grooves provide high aquaplaning resistance by better water and slush dispersion from under the footprint, improving wet braking and traction performance. Thanks to the tough tread cap compound and solid shoulder ribs this model delivers enhanced resistance to maneuvering scrub and increased tread life.
Bridgestone R250ED is available with 22.5 and 24.5-inch sizes backed by long-lasting treadwear being one of the best all-position/steer position options for a wide range of commercial vehicles used in goods and people transportation, but also in some construction applications.
