12 run flat tyre USEFUL information Run Flat Tyre Bridgestone recognises the importance of helping to raise the level of safety for motorists around the world and so has pursued ways to overcome the risks associated with fl at tyres. These efforts have resulted in the revolutionary tyre technology known as Run Flat Tyre (RFT). Bridgestone set out to design a tyre that enables safe driving from the point at which a puncture occurs until the driver can bring the car to a safe location. Compared to a conventional tyre, an RFT has a signifi cantly reinforced, thicker side wall made from heat resistant rubber which can safely carry the weight of the car for a short period even after a total loss of air pressure. Run Flat Tyres should only be fi tted to vehicles that come with Run Flat Tyres as the original tyre. Any vehicle that has Run Flat Tyres requires a TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) so the driver can determine if there is a puncture. CONVENTIONAL TYRE Normal infl ation conditions at 200kPa. The yellow area indicates reinforced, thicker sidewall. At zero pressure when punctured Run Flat Tyres can safely carry the weight of the car for a short period. The conventional tyre needs to be replaced before further use. Tyre inflation The air pressure in a tyre can infl uence tyre life, vehicle performance and passenger safety. The correct infl ation pressures for a tyre can vary depending on the tyre size, vehicle weight and usage. Refer to the vehicle owner s handbook or the vehicle tyre placard for guidance, or talk to your Bridgestone stockist. Over infl ation of tyres can: Reduce the ability of the tyre to absorb road shocks, resulting in a much harsher ride. Cause excessive wear of the centre of the tyre. Under infl ation can: Cause excessive fl exing in the tyre, building up internal heat and causing rapid and irregular tread wear. Create more rolling resistance which will have a negative impact on your vehicle s fuel effi ciency. Pressure check list Tyre pressures should be checked at least weekly. Pressures should be checked when the tyre is cold. Never bleed air from a hot tyre. Valves should be checked regularly for damage or leaks. Sealing type valve caps should always be used. For high speed driving and load conditions, increase the infl ation pressures as shown in the vehicle owner s handbook. Unsafe tread depth Ensure that tyres have more than 1.6mm of tread. Most new tyres have about 8mm of tread when manufactured, but as tyres wear their ability to disperse water reduces. Tyres should be replaced before the tread wears down to the level of the Tread Wear Indicators. The Tread Wear Indicators are moulded into all major grooves of tyres in at least four positions around the tyre. These indicators sit at least 1.6mm above the bottom of the grooves. If you are unsure of how to correctly read your tread depth, visit your nearest Bridgestone stockist. Tread depth indicators

13 understanding tyre size WIDTH TYRE CONSTRUCTION ASPECT RATIO RIM LOAD & SPEED WIDTH 195 indicates the section width of a tyre in millimetres. Width ASPECT RATIO 65 is a tyre s aspect ratio which is its height from the base of the tread to the rim. This number represents a percentage of the tread width. For example, the height of this tyre is 65% of its width. Low profi le tyres have smaller aspect ratio percentages. Height TYRE CONSTRUCTION R means that the tyre has radial ply construction, meaning the way in which it has been constructed. Most passenger tyres are constructed this way so you will rarely fi nd a car tyre without an R. RIM 15 indicates the diameter of the wheel rim, so if you are buying wheels for existing tyres - this is the size in inches you will require. Diameter LOAD & SPEED 91 V is a symbol that indicates the maximum load capacity and speed at which a tyre can be safely operated, subject to the tyre being in sound condition, correctly fi tted and with the recommended infl ation pressure.
