Bridgestone Americas has introduced the Firestone FS592 steer tire, designed to help truck drivers get more miles, improve durability, and reduce downtime. Built as the successor to the FS591, this tire is made for both long-haul and regional trucking operations.
The FS592 comes in four sizes, is EPA SmartWay certified, and features Bridgestone’s next-generation ENLITEN technology. With an extra 32nd of tread depth and a wider footprint, it delivers more removal miles than the previous model.
According to Bridgestone, “The FS592 will officially replace the FS591 and builds upon its predecessor’s reputation for durability with 17% longer life. On average, it will deliver 18,000 more miles than its predecessor; a casing engineered with the company’s next-generation ENLITEN technology to deliver added durability, greater retreadability, and improved rolling resistance; and defense grooves and an optimized shoulder rib to help control wear balance and combat against tearing.”
The tire also features a five-rib tread design to ensure even wear across different road conditions, helping drivers maintain safe handling while extending the life of their tires.
For truckers, this means fewer stops for tire maintenance, more predictable wear, and longer-lasting performance on both highways and regional routes.
