Product description & features

The Bridgestone Turanza T001 is a summer tyre designed primarily with the needs of wet braking and quieter driving on the motorway in mind. Its asymmetric tread features high angle braking blocks. Bridgestone's Resonator Grooves are used on the Turanza T001 to diminish the sound made as the tyre rotates on the tread. Flat Contact Patch construction improves the tread design by helping to achieve an even distribution of pressure, and therefore even tread wear.

The T001 uses the NanoPro-Tech rubber compound, which is intended to enhance wet braking by reducing an internal build-up of heat. The T001 was intended to replace the original Turanza ER300, and was followed in the Bridgestone line-up by the Turanza T005. The tyre is also available in XL construction and RFT run-flat versions. At Tyres.co.uk, we offer the run-flat version of the Bridgestone Turanza T001.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread, high-angle braking blocks
  • Resonator grooves for lower road noise
  • Run-flat and XL versions available

As expected - not the first nor the last option - a substitute to the original.
