NEW NAMING SYSTEM

The Bridgestone R-STEER 001 and R-DRIVE 001 follow our new user-friendly naming system. The system is designed to make tyre
names clearer and more transparent. The new naming explains the two most important aspects of correct tyre use: the tyre
type (R for regional) and the axle (Steer or Drive).
