Where are Bridgestone tires produced?
1 Answers
Bridgestone tires' production locations can be identified. The origin of Bridgestone tires can be determined by the 'made in' marking on the tire sidewall, and the manufacturing plant can also be identified by the DOT suffix on the sidewall. If the DOT is followed by '1U', it indicates a product from the Tianjin factory. If '31' follows the DOT, it signifies a product from the Wuxi factory. The meaning of Bridgestone tire model numbers: 195 refers to the tire width of 195mm; 5 indicates the aspect ratio, meaning the section height is 55% of the width; R denotes that the tire is a radial tire; 15 stands for the rim diameter of 15 inches; 85 is the load index, representing a maximum load capacity of 515 kg; V indicates a speed rating of 240 kilometers per hour.
