The Bridgestone Turanza Quiettrack summer tire is designed for owners of passenger cars who prefer long trips over long distances. It is characterized by a quiet and smooth ride, improved fuel efficiency, excellent wear resistance, as well as increased directional stability at high speeds, ease of handling, and maneuverability.
The tread pattern is distinguished by a large number of contact edges. A significant part of them is formed by lamellas with sharpened serrated edges. The vertical walls of the grooves have a "three-dimensional" profile, which allows the lamellas to be fixed in the open position when in contact with the road surface and limits the mobility of the blocks. As a result, not only the traction and braking properties are improved, primarily on wet surfaces, but also an excellent stability of adhesion is achieved during such driving modes, making it easier to control the vehicle.
The tire features the QuietTrack technology, designed to minimize the level of high-frequency noise. The essence of the innovation lies in the use of special protrusions in the longitudinal grooves, which prevent the formation of vortices of passing air. The ComfortCruise technology also contributes to increased comfort. The tread profile has a special shape that not only increases the contact patch but also rounds its corners. This significantly reduces the level of vibrations, thereby reducing the noise in the car's cabin. Similarly, the optimization of the carcass shape affects the acoustic comfort, as it better dampens even the slightest deformations of the tire due to mechanical influences.
Key features of Bridgestone Turanza Quiettrack
- a large number of 3D lamellas with a serrated edge shape increase traction and braking intensity on wet surfaces;
- special protrusions in the drainage grooves prevent the formation of high-frequency noise;
- an optimized tread profile and carcass shape minimize vibrations on "rough" asphalt, slowing down the process of abrasive wear of the tread.
