Bridgestone Jeep Service Tires
Not really, 70 series, but I thought I would get better help here than any other section... if it needs to be moved, I apologize.
anyway, I'm interested in the Bridgestone Jeep Service tires. I have read that they are exclusively a Japan-Market only tire...
Anyone know how to get them in NA? Any leads are appreciated... thanks!!!

they're new. I think Ens is still selling them for $50 each new, or as new as they can be from the ride off the train to their shop!

Talk to Ens. I am sure they they will throw them on a pallet for you (you never know) but they might want you to take a full pallet

while durable they are heavy and it's noticable on a f or b engine

Whats so good about them except the price
Are they studs in the rubber?
They remind me of the Custom Hi-Milers I had on a mitsu Jeep many years ago

I've also been told no more Bias Ply "Jeep Service"
Also to note, they are very waaaaaavvvy on turns. I like radials better.
When they were $19USD mounted (not balanced) they were a deal (2003).

The last batch I saw had the jeep service tires. I will swing by tomorrow and have a look at what is there.

I can't get a hold of ENS. Anyone have another email to use? (other than the one on their site?) Or any other vendor? Thanks!

why not run the cooper discoverer S/T in 255/85 R16
The 7x16 jeep service tires are 8ply bias, heavy and hard as hockey pucks. I didn't get that many miles out of them.

They're gonna be strictly for off road use. The tires fit my needs... Also, the Deestone D503 is a tire I would look at if I can't find the Bridgestones
