With six years in a row at the top of
the world's most demanding motor sport, Bridgestone's
advanced tyre technologies have proved their superiority.
ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT.
Bridgestone is steadily growing in the original equipment
market due to its excellent performances. It is constantly
awarded new and exclusive contracts with the biggest
car manufacturers such as Ferrari, BMW, Audi, Daimler-Chrysler...
to mention just a few.
We are very proud to have the Potenza
RE050 fitted to Ferrari's super sport car “Enzo”,
but equally important are our fitments on general
use cars such as the Volkswagen Polo and Peugeot 307.
Our aim is to have more and more cars,
from super sport to general use, equipped with Bridgestone
tyres when they leave the factory.
KEEPING TYRES ROLLING SAFELY EVEN
AFTER A PUNCTURE.
Bridgestone is a pioneer in developing and producing
runflat tyres. These tyres continue to function safely
up to a designated speed and distance after losing
pressure. Along with enhancing safety, they save weight
and fuel by eliminating the need to carry a spare
tyre.
Bridgestone supplies runflat tyres to
several car manufacturers, for high performance sports
cars, stylish coupes, ultra-fuel-efficient minicars,
and special vehicles for transporting physically disabled
people.
These tyres can be mounted on conventional
wheels and have reinforced sidewalls to support the
vehicle even if punctured.
