Bridgestone Turanza T005A. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; Enhanced controllability; Comfortable driving experience; . OVERVIEW: The Bridgestone Turanza T005A is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.The model ensures first-rate summer weather traction. The special Nano Pro-Tech compound blend and the symmetric tread design enhance the dry and wet weather road gripping ability. The compound combines silica and polymer increase the tire's traction in warmer weather conditions as they avoid heat build-up and offer a stronger compound blend. The symmetric tread design's siping detail and circumferential grooves maintain a consistent grip on the road surface, while the groove pattern avoids hydroplaning by dispersing water from the footprint. The improved traction and hydroplaning resistant guarantee a secure driving experience.The tire promotes great controllability. The tread pattern features three continuous center ribs and wider shoulder blocks that keep the tire's contact with the road surface at all times. The three center ribs maintain the road constant road contact and improve the steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The wide shoulder pattern offers additional biting edges that firmly grip the road surface during cornering. They enhance the cornering and maneuvering capability and power and promote a secure driving experience.The Turanza T005A provides an enjoyable drive. The tread design and reinforced structure lower the road noise and vibration levels. The tread's high-angle siping detail and variable pitch sequence decrease the road and tread pattern noise generated by dampening them before reaching the vehicle's cabin. The sound frequency created by the variable pitch sequence negates all noise produced while the tires are in motion. The reinforced sidewalls enable the tire's optimal road contact, which absorbs the shock of driving. As a result, the road vibrations are lowered and not felt in the vehicle's cabin. This combination ensures a comfortable and quiet 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.
