Bridgestone M403 Motorcycle Tires

Bridgestone Motorcycle Tires

The first Bridgestone tire rolled forward on April 9, 1930. Though at the time there was no Bridgestone name. However, less than a year later founder Shojiro Ishibashi established the Bridgestone Tire Co. The name Bridgestone comes from Ishibashi which means "stone bridge" in Japanese.

As with many Japanese manufacturing companies, World War II decimated the industry forcing businesses to make tough decisions. After the war, Bridgestone focused on building motorcycles while receiving most of its income supplying tires to rival motorcycle makers. Bridgestone motorcycles sputtered a short while later.

The outlook brightened in 1951 when Bridgestone became the first company in Japan to sell rayon cord tires. Production facilities saw modernization in that decade and in 1959, Bridgestone sold nylon tires. The company expanded to the United States in 1967 and in 1988 Bridgestone bought Firestone Tire and Rubber Company.

Today it runs neck-and-neck with Michelin as the largest tire manufacturer in the world. Bridgestone's innovative technology provides tires with unsurpassed grip, balance and cornering ability.
