Bridgestone 144679 Ecopia EP422 205/60R16 91H All-Season Passenger Tire

The Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 is an all-season passenger tire engineered specifically to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions without sacrificing year-round performance. Featuring Bridgestone's proprietary NanoPro-Tech compound technology, this tire minimizes rolling resistance at the molecular level — helping drivers get more miles per tank while lowering their vehicle's carbon footprint.

Designed for confident handling on both wet and dry surfaces, the EP422 uses a silica-enhanced tread compound that increases flexibility for improved wet-weather grip. Four circumferential grooves channel water efficiently out of the contact patch, providing strong resistance to hydroplaning. The tread compound also incorporates recycled ground rubber sourced from post-consumer tires, contributing to approximately 5% of the tread formula.

The Fuel Saver Sidewall Compound further reduces heat generation and returns more energy back into the tire compared to conventional sidewall compounds, contributing to lower rolling resistance across all driving conditions. This tire carries a 65,000-mile treadwear warranty and a UTQG rating of 480AA, reflecting above-average tread life with excellent traction grades.

Key Features:

• NanoPro-Tech Compound — Controls polymer and filler interaction at the molecular level to reduce rolling resistance and improve fuel economy
• Fuel Saver Sidewall Compound — Reduces heat generation and returns energy to the tire for lower rolling resistance
• Silica-Enhanced Tread — Increases tread flexibility for superior wet-surface traction
• Recycled Ground Rubber — Post-consumer tire material comprising ~5% of tread compound for eco-conscious construction
• Four Circumferential Grooves — Efficiently evacuate water from the footprint to resist hydroplaning
• 65,000-Mile Treadwear Warranty — Long-lasting durability backed by Bridgestone
• UTQG 480AA — Strong treadwear rating with top-grade traction and temperature performance
• Black Sidewall (BW) — Clean, classic finish
• Load Range B (4-Ply) — Standard passenger load rating

The Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 in size 205/60R16 91H is an ideal choice for drivers of sedans, coupes, and minivans seeking to maximize fuel savings and reduce environmental impact without compromising on all-season reliability or ride comfort.
