Published	2026-03-03
Manufacturer	Bridgestone
Models affected	Duravis Tyre R660 Eco 215/65R16C 109/107T

This may present as a tyre bulge, tread deformation and/or additional tread cuts which may become apparent on the tread surface. Extended use of the tyre with moisture intrusion and oxidation of the belt package can, in a small number of cases overseas, lead to tread deformation…
