Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus Tires
The Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This model has some high performance sizes available as well. Bridgestone offers 65,000 miles treadwear warranty with this model.
The all season performance is guaranteed with this tread design and all season compound. These elements work together to improve dry, wet, and winter weather performance. In this manner, the asymmetric tread design closely follows the road surface throughout the year, while the compound keeps the rubber flexible in summer and winter conditions. On the other hand, this tread design also prevents hydroplaning. The tread design has four large grooves that eliminate water and slush from the footprint.
The tire is a run flat model. That means its strengthened internal structure enables the tire’s limited, temporary performance in case of air pressure loss. In other words, the tire can be driven for 50 miles up to the speed of 50 mph. In this manner, the vehicle is not stranded on the side of the road. Instead, it can be driven to a nearby location where the damaged tire can be fixed or changed. This allows the tire to promote a safe performance.
Consistent road contact improves overall controllability and driving stability. This tread design boosts steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, this improves the steering response time and accuracy to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. In this manner, the specially designed tread strongly grips the road surface and improves cornering and braking. As a result, the driver has full control over the vehicle at all times.
The Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus guarantees passengers an enjoyable driving experience. This tread design and rubber compound work together to reduce the road and tread noise levels heard by the passengers during the drive. On the other hand, the rubber compound and the close road contract absorb the shock of driving, which reduces vibrations felt in the vehicle’s cabin. As a result, the model offers a quiet and comfortable performance.
