Bridgestone introduced three new tires -- a drive tire, a mixed-service tire, and a wide-base trailer tire.


The new Bridgestone M770 open-shoulder drive axle radial tire combines greater tread volume for longer mileage with superb traction in all weather conditions. The M770 features an innovative groove and block shape to fight lug base cracking and tearing.

For enhanced retreadability, the M770 offers stone rejector platforms in all grooves to help prevent stones from getting trapped and drilling into the belts.

The M770 drive tire is available in four sizes. The 295/75R22.5 (G) is available now. The 285/75R24.5 (G), 11R22.5 (G/H) and 11R24.5 (G) are all expected to be available during the first quarter of 2012.

The new Bridgestone M799 mixed service radial is for fleets looking for a tough, long-wearing tire for on highway service and occasional use on gravel roads and debris-filled job sites.

The computer-designed all-steel casing of the M799 provides outstanding durability and retreadability. Casing-saving stone rejector platforms help prevent rocks from being trapped in the tread and drilling their way into the belts. In addition, thick ribs on both sidewalls protect the casings from cuts and abrasions.

The M799 has extra-deep cap and base tread compound to promote long, original tread life. The long-wearing cap compound is engineered for the everyday abuse of on and off highway use, while the base compound helps shield the casing from damaging heat for enhanced retreadability. A tough, top steel belt fights flats by adding protection against road hazards.

The M799 comes in sizes 11R22.5, 11R24.5 and 12R22.5 and will be available for sale Aug. 25, 2011.

The Greatec R125A wide base trailer radial, the newest addition to its Greatec over the road wide base tire lineup.

The tire's advanced technological design provides more payload, longer tire wear and reduces costs per mile. The Greatec R125A is equipped with an exclusive belt system to maintain casing shape. The wide top belt is optimized for better irregular wear resistance and the Waved Belt design holds the tread flat against the road for long, even wear and excellent handling.

The Greatec R125A uses several innovations that fight irregular wear and promote long, even tread life, including Bridgestone's Equalizer Rib structure and Defense Groove™ design. Both sidewalls have protector ribs to fight curbing, cuts and impacts. The R125A also features a mineral-additive innerliner to help minimize air loss and combat oxidation of the steel cords.

The Greatec R125A comes in size 445/50R22.5 (L) and is available now.
