Bridgestone Turanza LS100 A. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All season traction; Enhanced controllability; High driving comfort levels; . OVERVIEW: The Bridgestone Turanza LS100 A is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.The tire promotes great all season traction. The all season compound and the detailed tread design work together to increase the dry, wet, and winter weather surface grip. The stronger compound elements optimize the rubber flexibility in summer and winter conditions, optimizing the year round performing capability. The detailed notch and siping pattern firmly grip the road surface as they generate extra biting edges. The circumferential grooves disperse water and slush from the footprint, resulting in a safer hydroplaning resistance.A better controllability is also ensured. The tread design with the ribbed pattern ensures the surface contact at all times, upgrading the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In this manner, the tire promotes great steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. The shoulder pattern with the siping placement increases the cornering ability with extra biting edges. This promotes a safer maneuvering capability, significantly upgrading the driver's control over the vehicle at all times.The Turanza LS100 A guarantees high driving comfort levels. The tread design, with the variable pitch placement, helps to reduce the road noise and vibrations. The ribbed pattern's close surface contact absorbs the shock of driving, which greatly decreases the road vibrations felt by the passengers. The tread negates the sound waves by generating a special sound frequency. The combination of these elements prevents road disturbances from reaching the vehicle's cabin, offering a quiet and comfortable 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.
