About Bridgestone
Bridgestone has been the world’s largest tyre manufacturer by volume for nearly two decades. Founded in Japan in 1931, it bought Firestone in 1988 and now operates 178 factories globally. The OE footprint is unmatched — more new cars worldwide ship on Bridgestones than any other brand.
The range covers every segment with depth. Potenza is the performance line. Turanza is the comfort/premium line, with an EV-specific Enliten compound. Dueler is the SUV and 4×4 range — H/L for highway, A/T for all-terrain. Blizzak is the winter range, widely considered the best ice-grip tyre on the market.
Bridgestone’s recent engineering focus is Enliten — a lightweight reinforced construction that reduces rolling resistance (helping fuel economy and EV range) without sacrificing wet grip. It’s now in the latest Turanza and being rolled out across the range.
Signature technology
- Enliten lightweight compound (EV-optimised)
- B-Silent noise-cancelling foam
- Run Flat (RFT) technology
- NanoPro-Tech rubber

Bridgestone in Surrey
Bridgestone is the default we fit on Toyota and Lexus in Surrey (most ship OE on it), and is increasingly common on Tesla Model Y and Model 3 — Bridgestone has won several recent Tesla OE contracts. Turanza 6 with Enliten is a popular EV choice. Dueler H/L 422 Ecopia is one of our most-fitted highway SUV tyres.
