It was designed with Bridgestone's QuietTrack technology which provides a detailed computer-optimized tread pattern to lower the road and tread pattern noise heard in the vehicle's cabin. The tread features in-groove quiet tracks, optimized shoulder slots and a variable pitch sequence that work together to decrease the road noise generated during the drive. They dampen and cancel the road and tread pattern noise out before they can ruin the passenger's driving enjoyment. On the other hand, the model's steel belt reinforced polyester casing keeps its optimal shape under the driving pressure, while the ComfortCruise Technology's computer designed rounder footprint keep the tire's contact with the road surface. This enables the tire's close road contact, which allows it to absorb the shock of driving. This ensures that the road vibrations are not felt while the tires are in motion. As a result, the model guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
