When it comes to safety, there can be no compromises – choose Bridgestone tyres.
Everyone knows that tyres are the only parts of your car that actually come into contact with the road.
But here’s an even more significant fact to think about: Did you know that the contact patch of a tyre is equivalent to the size of a single handprint?
This means that at any one time, you and your family are riding on four handprints worth of tyre treads.
It is therefore important to ensure that these four “handprints” give you as much grip and stability as they can. The lives of your loved ones are literally riding on them when you’re driving.
Bridgestone understands the importance of tyre safety, which is why they’ve extensively developed their tyres to make sure that they are always the safest choice for you and your family.
Bridgestone spends more than $800 million annually on tyre research and development.
Bridgestone also spends thousands of hours testing and refining their tyres with cuttingedge technology so that they surpass global safety standards and offer you maximum safety.
Bridgestone also greatly emphasises proper tyre care. Keeping your tyres wellmaintained goes a long way towards getting the best performance and safety out of your tyres.
Here are four important points to remember:
1 Inflate your tyres to the correct pressures, as under-inflation or overinflation can lead to excessive tread wear.
2 Maintain a safe tread depth, as this affects the tyre’s ability to disperse water. Replace your tyres when they reach a tread depth of 2mm or less.
3 Make sure your tyres are properly aligned and balanced to prevent uneven wear.
4 Rotate your tyres every 5000 to 8000 kilometres to maximise their lifespan and ensure even tread wear, as each tyre undergoes different levels of stress
Having safe tyres can save lives, and choosing Bridgestone tyres will ensure that you’re in safe hands.
