Whatever the car, Bridgestone has the right tyre for you

As Chinese New Year looms for 2022, many of you might be preparing to travel back to your hometowns for the festive season. Before that, it's always prudent to ensure your car is in the right condition for long distance driving.

That means the requisite checks on your car's fluids (engine oil, transmission oil, radiator coolant, brake fluids) as well as things like your brake pads and suspension system. Obviously, you'd wanna have a look at your tyres too. Time to change? Well, Bridgestone has a selection of tyres for you, whatever your car might be. Let's dive in to Bridgestone's product range.

Ecopia – The fuel efficient and environmentally-friendly tyre

Kicking off Bridgestone's tyre offering is the Bridgestone Ecopia range of tyres. Ecopia is a low rolling resistance tyre that is engineered to make any car more fuel efficient. 

With NanoPro-Tech, this cutting-edge compound contributes to improved wet grip and reduced rolling resistance.  When you want it all, the Ecopia is engineered for superior performance, which gives you better safety and increased savings.  The best part is, regardless of whether you drive a SUV or a saloon/hatchback, there's an Ecopia tyre for you.

For saloon or hatchback owners, choose from the Ecopia EP150 or the Ecopia EP300. As for SUV owners, the Ecopia H/L 001 is the tyre for you. 

Turanza - Luxurious comfort for your premium car

Next up is the Turanza range of tyres. The Turanza line up is for drivers who are seeking a smooth, quiet and luxurious driving experience. From premium luxury sedans to grand tourers, you can be sure that every journey is a serene one with Turanza tyres.

Not only that, the Turanza range of tyres also possesses reliable high-speed driving performance, exellent steering response and handling, be it in dry conditions or wet. So, if you've been searching for a tyre that delivers on both comfort and stability, not many can rival the Turanza. 

Alenza - When you want the best for your SUV

With SUVs becoming all the rage on our roads, it only made sense that Bridgestone developed a premium tyre tailored to this segment of the market. Because of the inherently taller and heavier bodies SUVs possess (versus an equivalent saloon/hatchback), tyre design and characteristics need to take this into account.

Enter the Bridgestone Alenza 001, which is designed to maximise the handling potential on both wet and dry roads during city driving with confidence and comfort. On top of that, the Alenza also returns outstanding tyre life and high-level braking performance. Want nothing but the best tyres for you SUV? Get a set of Bridgestone Alenza. 

Potenza - For performance seeking drivers

Sure, comfort and a smooth ride is indeed important for many buyers, but what about those who want a more sporty, sharper drive? This is one area that Bridgestone is no stranger to. After all, we're talking about a tyre maker who supplied tyres to Formula One for more than a decade (13 years to be exact). 

The answer is the Potenza range of tyres. Yes, the same model name was emblazoned on Bridgestone's Formula One tyres. Of course, it's not the exact same tyre used in Formula One, but the Potenza models carry the same performance-infused spirit married with Bridgestone's motorsport experience. 

Whichever Potenza model you choose, you're sure to find exceptional steering feedback, top-class roadholding and precise handling, whatever the driving conditions. 

RFT - For peace of mind

It goes without saying that road conditions can change in a blink of an eye. Sure, it's great to have a spare wheel handy when suffering a puncture, but do you really dare to swap wheels on the side of the road, on that has limited visibility and moving traffic?

That's why Run Flat Tyres (RFT) makes so much sense. Even after suffering a puncture, you can drive at speeds up to 80 km/h for a distance of 80 km. That way, you can drive to the nearest tyre centre to safely change your tyres. 

Bridgestone has a RFT to cater to most types of cars. Choose from the Potenza S001 RFT, Alenza 001 RFT, Turanza T001 / T005 RFT and Dueler H/P Sport RFT. 

Dueler - Make every drive an adventure

Also not forgetting the more adventurous among us. Yes, Bridgestone also has products for drivers who spend time both on and off the tarmac as well, and it's known as the Dueler range of tyres. Trucks, SUVs, 4x4s, this is the tyre of choice. 

Choose from a range of Dueler tyres that optimise daily comfort and civility, or a blend of all-terrain versatility, or even one for your mud-slinging Borneo Safari adventures. Add to that is the legendary durability and tread wear life of the Dueler models and you have yourself a winning tyre.

What's more, in conjunction with Chinese New Year, from now until 28 Feb 2022, to get up to RM 120 Touch N Go e-wallet credit when you purchase a set of Bridgestone tyres. More details on that can be found here. 

As you can see, there is bound to be a tyre that suits your needs in Bridgestone's product portfolio, be it comfort, performance, or endurance you value. More than that, it's backed by Bridgestone's tyre making pedigree, wrought from 90 years of expertise gleaned from not only motorsports but passenger cars.
