Michelin Tires - Ramblings From a Fan
It was in 2002 that Edouard Michelin articulated the mission of the North American tire manufacturing company with impressive eloquence, while truly encapsulating the driving force behind the company for so many years.
Mr. Michelin stated, "We have one profession and one mission: contribute to long-term progress in the field of mobility."
The statement itself could at first glance appear slightly overly dramatic, until one considers, not only the importance of the field that Michelin Tires works within, but also the work and the advances the company has made.
Michelin Tires does research and development, production and sales in the different areas of: motorcycles, trucks, heavy-duty construction equipment, agricultural machines, aircrafts and, of course, cars.
This is quite a list for a company that has more public awareness dedicated to a plump albino than for putting years of innovation to ensure that airplanes can land safely...

SUV Tires
SUV tires are specially designed tires, which work well in both on- and off-road conditions. Most SUV tires are wider than a traditional car tire. Compared with standard passenger car tires, SUV tires tend to have shorter lives but are designed to handle bigger impacts. All-season tires designed for all situations are the most popular form of SUV tires.
The main considerations when purchasing SUV tires are traction, tread wear characteristics, and temperature resistance.
Traction stands for the tire's capability to stop on wet pavement. Tread wear depends on the fuel economy ratings of the tire. Temperature resistance represents the tire's ability to oppose the production of heat. Proper tire pressure is the most important aspect in maintaining SUV tires. Tire-pressure monitors identify the pressure variations.
Speed ratings let us know how fast a tire is rated to perform safely at suggested air pressures.
All-season SUV tires are the most cost...

Bridgestone Tires - Taking A Drive
After a chance meeting between Henry Ford and Harvey Firestone in the late 1800?s the two collaborated on Ford's first automobile.
It was the man that ultimately was the impetus for Bridgestone Tires that helped Mr. Ford resolve his problem of supporting such a large weight and also to give the ride a smoother touch.
From the hand that the Bridgestone Tire creator played in a historic moment in the history of the United States, through countless other innovations, Bridgestone has been there.
With something that the average person gives very little attention to unless a problem arises, it's interesting to consider what aspects must be focused on to make a good, reliable tire.
Bridgestone has given considerable attention in the area of wet handling and traction, tire punctures, tire wear, ride comfort, noise reduction, among countless other areas that are indeed essential, if we drivers and riders are to continue to "forget" about the things that our autos...
