Bridgestone Bandag Revamps Fleet Customer Website

Bridgestone Bandag Tire Solutions, a division of Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, has relaunched trucktires.com, a website the company said is provides solutions and advice to help fleet customers increase tire life and reduce cost per mile.

“No two fleets are absolutely identical. That’s why BBTS offers an extensive list of programs, services and products that can be used to help fleets customize solutions that are right for their business,” said Bill Block, manager of branding and advertising, BBTS. “One customer may want information on tire maintenance, the next may have tire operating costs that are out of line – each fleet may require a unique solution. Trucktires.com is a portal to these resources, offering information and guidance for BBTS dealers and fleets of all sizes.
 
The site’s “Toolbox” page is structured to help fleets keep their businesses running smoothly, offering tools and services for fleet management, buying programs, tire performance analysis, training and education – as well as tips for reducing tire and maintenance costs. For answers to specific tire problems, BBTS customers can e-mail a question to the “Tire Doctor,” who will reply with a personalized response, according to the company.
 
The new site also serves as a portal to the Bridgestone, Bandag, Firestone and
Dayton websites, where visitors can find tire and retread products, locate the nearest dealer and access emergency road service. Fleet customers can also check load/inflation tables, watch tire care videos and link to trucking industry and government websites.
