Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus 205/70R15, All Season, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: All weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Fuel efficient performance; Comfortable performance; Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus TiresThe Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Bridgestone offers a 70,000 mile treadwear warranty with new tires of this model. The tire promotes excellent all weather traction. The all season compound and the detailed tread design upgrade the grip on the road surface in dry, wet and winter weather conditions. The compound keeps the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures, while the tread design with the siping placement firmly grips the road surface with extra biting edges. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint, resulting in a safer wet weather performance. The optimal surface contact of the flat footprint and the stronger internal structure improve the controllability. They ensure the tire's better steering responsiveness and driving stability, to boost the driver's control over the vehicle. This results in the tire's quicker and more precise steering response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. This combination guarantees the tire's exceptional handling and durability. The NanoPro-Tech compound manages to keep the tire cool during its performance. In this manner, the tire avoids heat build-up along the footprint, easing the driving pressure off the tire to minimizing the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the pressure affecting the tire which determines the vehicle's needed fuel intake and CO2 emission, promoting a fuel efficient performance. This guarantees an environmentally friendly driving experience. The Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus also promotes high driving comfort levels. The tread design effectively channels airwaves through the footprint, without allowing their contact with the tread elements. This results in minimal road noise while the tires are in motion, which do not ruin the passengers' driving enjoyment. As a result, the tire promotes quiet and comfortable performance. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
