Bridgestone 008737 Turanza T005 RFT 245/40R19 98Y XL Run-Flat Summer Touring Tire

The Bridgestone Turanza T005 RFT (008737) is a premium summer touring tire built with Bridgestone's Run-Flat Technology (RFT), delivering the confidence of continued mobility even after a complete loss of inflation pressure. Engineered to meet demanding original equipment manufacturer specifications, this tire is designed to allow a vehicle to perform as the manufacturer intended in both dry and wet conditions.

Run-Flat Technology:

• Reinforced sidewall construction supports the vehicle's weight even with zero inflation pressure
• Allows continued driving up to 50 miles (80 km) at speeds up to 50 mph (80 km/h) after a puncture or full pressure loss
• Eliminates the need for a spare tire, reducing overall vehicle weight

Tread Design & Wet Performance:

• Asymmetrical tread pattern with wide circumferential grooves channels water away from the contact patch to resist hydroplaning
• Lateral grooves and chamfered edge sipes enhance wet traction and reduce braking distances on wet surfaces
• Connected shoulder blocks promote cornering stability and steering precision
• Optimized contact pressure distribution supports even treadwear and extended tire life

Construction & Compound:

• Bridgestone's proprietary Nano Pro-Tech high-silica compound improves rubber homogeneity while limiting internal heat buildup during high-speed use
• Durable steel belt reinforcement combined with stiff polyester carcass enhances high-speed durability and steering responsiveness
• Optimized carcass construction lowers rolling resistance for improved fuel efficiency and reduced CO₂ emissions
• Reinforced sidewall compound minimizes road noise and vibrations for a quiet, refined ride
