Bridgestone M854 rib-type, all-position tire is for use in severe on/off highway applications. The wide-base radial can be used on dump trucks and cement mixers. A wide footprint provides tire grip, and cap/base compounding and optimized casing construction improve overall occurrence of irregular wear, according to Bridgestone. Wide tread design provides high payload and flotation so tires maintain grip and traction without digging into the ground. Special compounding extends life while providing resistance to cuts, chips, tearing and irregular wear. Three sizes will be available in the United States, with the 425/65R22.5 available now. The 385/65R22.5 and 445/65R22.5 will be available later 2014.
