Bridgestone Turanza EL440FEATURES AND BENEFITS All weather traction; Longer lasting tread life; Accurate steering responsiveness; Reduce on-road vibrations; OVERVIEWThe Bridgestone Turanza EL440 is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. This model offers excellent all weather traction and it grips the road well in dry, wet... moreand slight winter weather conditions thanks to the silica-based tire compound. The tire also has enhanced wet weather traction and the tread grooves help resist hydroplaning in deep water situations by channeling water from below the footprint for maintained traction. The special tire compound used in the manufacture of the tire elongates the tread life. The tread wear rate is slowed down as the compound is resistant to wear, while the tread pattern maintains constant road contact. The enhanced road contact improves the equal distribution of the driving pressure along the tread area. This prevents irregular wear on the tire and makes it usable for a longer period of time. The model is easy to control in all weather conditions. The steering responsiveness makes the tire react to the commands of the driver quickly and accurately, making the tire safer to use. The tire's maximized road to tire contact is the reason for this great steering accuracy and swiftness, as it maintains constant contact between the two. The tire's controllability is increased while the tire also provides superb road feedback. The better road feedback enables the driver to quickly react to the differing road conditions, making the drive safer. The Turanza EL440 is a perfect touring tire as it offers a road noise and vibration free drive. The tire absorbs the shock of driving and follows the road surface well, which reduces the vibrations felt by the passengers of the vehicle. The tire also generates noise cancelling sound waves which reduce the road noise for a quiet and enjoyable driving experience. 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.
