Tougher to last longer
The“EL” in M726 EL means “extra life.” To optimize tread durability for one of the deepest drives in history, the M726 EL tread compound is stronger and more resistant to
irregular wear. This helps this 32/32˝deep tread wear slowly and evenly, delivering mega-mileage.
Wider to last longer
M726 EL’s wider tread distrib-utes weight and torque over a larger area for longer,smoother wear.
Bridgestone’s proven twin-layercap/base tread
Cap-and-base construction minimizes heat generation and helps shield casing from damaging heat, enhancing retreadability for even more low-cost miles.
Computer-designed
all-steel casing
Four steel belts and a tough steel body ply fight tread squirm
and irregular wear. Top belt addsprotection against penetrating
road hazards to fight flats.

M726EL’s deep-drive technology
Rugged block compound
Specially designed to produce stiff blocks that resist tread squirm and heel-and-toe wear for
exceptionally long tread life. Buttressed shape fights block tearing for even more miles of smooth wear.
Large aggressive blocks
Computer-engineered blocks are shaped and positioned to bite into soft surfaces for excellent traction, even on mud and snow.
Thirsty block sipes
Engineered to cut through water androad films for solid wet traction. Sipe
ends are rounded to resist tearing,even under high torque.
Casing-saving stone rejector platforms
Prevent trapped stones from pushing deeper into tread grooves and piercing belt layer,
damaging and exposing belts to rust.
High-grip shoulder notches
Bite through water for superb wet traction.
Stabilizing solid shoulder design
Distributes weight and torque tofight irregular wear and blocksquirm for outstanding, even wear.

Tire Load Limit at Cold Inflation Pressure
Mega-deep tread
At 32/32˝original tread depth, M726 EL has one of the deepest treads in the industry and
provides tread life that surpasses evenBridgestone’s legendary M726.
M726EL
Mixing M726EL with M726You don’t have to replace all your drive axle tires to try the M726EL. M726EL radials can be mounted with M726 radials as long as the difference in overall tread depth does not exceed 4/32 .̋
