Bridgestone Unveils Grain Cart Tire Under Firestone Ag Brand

Bridgestone Americas Inc. has introduced the Destination Cart radial tire under its Firestone Ag brand.  

“Specifically designed with soil health in mind, Destination Cart features a shallow skid depth and wide lug spacing that creates a flotation effect across the soil,” says Bill Durivage, senior agricultural product strategy manager for Firestone Ag.  

“The wide footprint minimizes soil compaction, and the shallower, wider-spaced lugs create less soil disturbance as the grain cart carries heavy loads during harvest season.” 

The tread design also promotes uniform wear, a smooth ride and self-cleaning properties.  

The tire is constructed with Advanced Deflection Design technology to enable producers to carry heavier loads at lower inflation pressures. A formulation on tire compound helps protect the tires against stubble damage.  

The tire is backed by Firestone Ag’s nine-year radial tire limited warranty and is now available.  

Destination Cart will also be highlighted at the Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa.
