New Bridgestone Firestone tire for vocational fleets

Bridgestone Firestone North American Tire, LLC has introduced the Bridgestone M850 on/off highway radial deep-tread all-position radial. The tire is designed to provide long tread life to the vocational market.

To achieve this, the M850 radial uses a deep 24/32-in. tread. The tire uses a specially designed block/rib tread pattern that provides an even wear pattern on a variety of road surfaces, the tire maker said.

The new M850 on/off-highway radial is available in 11R22.5 and 11R24.5 sizes with an “H” load rating.
