Bridgestone Alenza Sport A/S RFT 275/50R20, All Season, Touring tires.

Features and Benefits: Run flat tire model; All season traction; Enhanced controllability; Comfortable performance; Bridgestone Alenza Sport A/S RFT TiresThe Bridgestone Alenza Sport A/S RFT is a touring, all season tire made for passenger vehicles and SUVs. This is a run flat model, which features a reinforced internal structure. The stronger construction does not allow the tire to deform under pressure, once air pressure leaves the tire due to a puncture or some other damage. In such cases, the tire can be driven on for 50 miles up to the speed of 50 miles. This allows the tire to securely arrive at a nearby location where the damaged tire can be fixed. Run flat tires should not be mounted on the same vehicle with regular tires. The tire's manufacturing elements greatly improve the dry, wet, and winter weather traction. This enables the tire to greatly enhance the grip on the road surface with the use of extra biting edges, while the compound keeps the rubber flexibility in versatile temperatures. The tire also utilizes its wider circumferential grooves, by dispersing water and slush from the footprint in wet conditions. The tread also helps to ensure a constant surface contact. The optimized tread design maintains the road contact, in order to enhance the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In this manner, the tire offers excellent steering response time and accuracy, while it also secures the structural stability against the driving pressure. The siping detail allows the tire to generate friction at the moment of braking. This greatly decreases the braking distance, promoting a secure driving experience. The Bridgestone Alenza Sport A/S RFT offers great comfort levels. The close road contact of the ribbed tread design allows the tire to absorb the shock of driving, minimizing the road vibrations. The tread with the ideal pattern decreases the road noise heard while the tires are in motion. This combination guarantees the passengers' driving enjoyment, as road disturbances do not reach the vehicle's cabin. This tire model was manufactured as the original equipment tire of select Mercedes-Benz vehicles. 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.
