Bridgestone recently released the R283A Ecopia steer tire, and I had the chance to stop by the Bridgestone Booth at TMC to learn about the new tire that tackles both improved rolling resistance for fuel efficiency and increasing wear life for retreadability, a tire feat that is no small task. In addition, retreads continue to play a key role in extending the functional life of a tire casing, and taking efficiency tracking even further is Bridgestone’s Fleet Analyzer 2.0—a Bluetooth-powered tire inspection tool that allows fleets to work with their tire dealer to manage, maintain and forecast tire usage. For all the tire spec’ing insight, watch the video above.
