3LC (3 Layer Compound) Technology

The shoulder compound provides an excellent cornering grip. The center compound offers linear handling.

HTSPC (High Tensile Super Penetrated Cord)

Steel cord material is comprised of individual rubber insulated inner filaments with high thermal conductivity to enhance heat transfer and reduce the risk of a blowout. Moisture does not accumulate between filaments, reducing the chance of oxidation. The features promote high-speed stability and durability of the tire as a whole. High case rigidity (grip performance) and superior shock absorption have also been achieved by these highly tensile filaments which have strong resistance to deformation.

MS BELT (Mono Spiral Belt)

Lightweight and durable cords are wrapped around the circumference of the tire to provide a smooth grip feeling. This contributes to a high-performance tire with ①weight reduction, improvement in ②grip improvement, ③rotational stability, ④high speed performance and ⑤excellent damping effect.

SILICA RICH

Silica Rich Compound ensures high grip performance in low-temperature conditions at the early stage of riding and exhibits excellent wet performance.

NanoPro-Tech®
Is Bridgestone’s key technology which controls the nanostructure of tire materials through molecular design, in order to emphasize the needed characteristics of the material.
