The Bridgestone Ecopia EP500 is an ecologically-oriented summer touring tire featuring award-winning ologic technology, originally developed as Original Equipment for the BMW i3 and i8 electric vehicles. This innovative tire combines a large diameter design with a narrow tread pattern to deliver exceptional energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact while maintaining excellent performance characteristics.

• Lower aerodynamic drag reduces energy consumption
• Black sidewall (BSW) styling maintains sporty appearance
