Summer tire for passenger cars Bridgestone Turanza LS100 is perfect for everyday use, both on urban highways and high-speed motorways. It is characterized by improved traction properties on wet surfaces, handling comfort, damage-resistant sidewalls, and an extended service life.
The tread pattern is distinguished by lamellas. Two types of slits are used here. In the central part, "three-dimensional" lamellas with serrated edges are applied, "borrowed" from the brand's winter tires. When opened, such slits limit the mobility of the blocks, which increases the stability of the grip and the accuracy of handling. The notches in the shoulder zones have straight edges, which ensures more intense water removal from under the tire, increasing its resistance to aquaplaning. At the same time, the ride becomes smoother, and the tire's reactions to the driver's actions change in a similar way, which increases the comfort of handling when changing direction.
The profile of the tire's tread has a shape that makes the contact patch larger. This significantly increases traction, improves stability when driving in a straight line, and increases handling accuracy. Additionally, rolling resistance is reduced, and the process of abrasive wear is slowed down. When maneuvering, these properties hardly change, as does the shape of the contact patch, thanks to the increased stiffness of the sidewalls, a "signature" feature of almost all passenger models of this Japanese brand. It is this that ensures their resistance to damage when driving over sharp edges of deep potholes on the road surface.
