Bridgestone Duravis M700 HD
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- All weather traction
- Longer lasting tread life
- Enhanced controllability
- Upgraded durability
OVERVIEW
The Bridgestone Duravis M700 HD is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial vans. This model also has some trailer sizes, which are manufactured for SPECIAL TRAILER USE ONLY and they should not be mounted on light trucks.
The tire provides a secure all weather traction. The ribbed tread pattern and the all season compound work together to increase the dry, wet and winter weather grip on the road surface. The compound keeps its flexibility in various conditions, while the detailed tread elements enhance the tire's grip. The special multi-edged shoulder ribs and center tread blocks, the stepped block edges and the interlocking zigzag groove pattern work together to increase the tire's grip in winter weather, while driving on snow-covered road surfaces. They offer additional biting edges to keep the tire's grip throughout the year. The special circumferential zigzag grooves prevent hydroplaning. They eliminate water and slush from below the tire's footprint and guarantee a secure performance.
The model promotes a lengthened usability. The closed shoulder slots and the optimal road contact of the ribbed pattern enhances the tire's tread life. They maintain the tire's surface contact and upgrade the driving pressure distribution. In this manner, the tire is capable of evenly spreading the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking out across the tread area to prevent irregular wear formations along the tread area. The model's usability is further improved with its damage prevention. The stronger steel belt construction and the durable tire compound prevent punctures, cuts, bruises and impact damage from harming the tire's casing during the model's performance. This lowers the tire's downtime due to damage, which extends its service life significantly.
The Duravis M700 HD features an optimal tire shape which improves its controllability. The ribbed tread pattern closely follows the road surface at all times, which upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This enhances the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. The better controllability is also ensured with the maintained optimal tire shape. The tire does not allow its shape to deform under the load and driving pressure affecting the tire thanks to the strengthened steel belt and polyester cord internal structure. This construction also enables the tire to safely carry and withstand heavy loads with ease during the tire's performance to offer a better load durability.
This specific tire is marked with OE as it is the original equipment tire of select vehicles.
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.
