Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus: The Winter Tire

Bridgestone’s DriveGuard Plus is a winter tire designed for all-season dependability. The DriveGuard Plus comes in wheel diameters ranging from 15 to 20 inches, and is ideal for small cars, crossovers, sedans, minivans, and coupes. This tire features tread wear indicators, which are narrow rubber bars that sit recessed into the tread grooves and can be used to check the remaining tread depth. The tire is made using lighter-weight rubber side inserts and the Cooling Fin Design that improves ride quality.

The Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus can run a distance of 50 miles and reach speeds of up to 50 mph with no pressure drop. It is designed with zero-degree draft angles and strong gripping powers to help you thrive in any conditions, stopping 40 feet shorter in snow. Circumferential grooves on the DriveGuard increase its resistance to hydroplaning. On damp and wet tarmac, the traction remains strong, while the cornering grip is great. Bridgestone DriveGuard Plus uses a silica-enhanced tire compound, which has higher road-sticking capabilities than non-silica rubber. Furthermore, the tire incorporates a Cooling Fin Design on the sidewall, which reduces total weight and hence improves performance and handling.
