Bridgestone The latest... Bridgestone The latest iteration of an all-terrain tire from Bridgestone is the Dueler A/T Revo. Carrying on the tradition of solid all-around abilities in conditions as diverse as deep sand to punishing jagged rocks, the Revo is looking to be the best of all worlds. Designed for light-truck and SUV applications, the Revo features a pronounced and aggressive tread pattern with finblade accents, making it an attractive tire for some. Offering dual-layered tread compound, Bridgestone claims the Revo holds wet and dry roads well, while durability off-road is enhanced by way of two polyester body-ply design. Bridgestone; 615/937-5000. www.bridgestone.com Firestone In the quest... Firestone In the quest to be unique, or simply to have a cool tire with the potential of future collectibility, Firestone has introduced the Firehawk Indy 500 tire. Featuring raised white lettering, as well as the famed Indianapolis 500 wing and wheel logo, the tire is certain to set any light-truck or SUV apart from the rest. The S-rated tire comes in 17 sizes, meaning that there's something for just about everyone. The Indy tire is designed using Long Link Carbon that absorbs road stress over a larger area, making for a tire better able to resist cracking, tearing, and excessive wear, according to the company.
