The Bridgestone R249 Ecopia is a premium wide-base steer tyre specifically engineered to combine high-load capacity with superior fuel efficiency. Developed for long-haul and regional transport, it features Bridgestone’s NanoPro-Tech compound, which significantly reduces rolling resistance and energy loss without compromising on tread life or safety.
The R249 is renowned for its Equaliser Rib Design (ERD) and “Waved Belt” technology, which work together to minimize irregular wear and enhance casing stability. This results in a tyre that offers precise handling, a quieter ride, and a highly durable casing suitable for multiple retreads. Its deep longitudinal grooves provide excellent water drainage, earning it high marks for wet-weather braking and safety on motorways.
