Tyre Size and Vehicle Fitment

The 265/70R16 specification features a 265 mm nominal section width, 70-series profile and 16-inch rim diameter. Bridgestone lists this exact 112S specification for SUVs, 4x4s and compatible utility vehicles, with an 8.0-inch standard rim width and permitted rim widths from 7.0 to 9.0 inches.

Wet-Road Performance

The Dueler H/T 840 is designed to provide strong traction on wet roads. Its computer-designed tread pattern helps evacuate water from the contact area while maintaining dependable grip in wet driving conditions.

Dry-Road Grip and Stability

On dry roads, the tyre provides stable handling and predictable steering response. Bridgestone's reinforced polyester body plies are designed to increase vehicle stability and steering response, making the tyre suitable for everyday highway and urban SUV driving.

Highway and Seasonal Use

The Dueler H/T 840 is primarily a highway-oriented tyre for SUVs and 4x4 vehicles. Bridgestone classifies the model as a summer SUV/4x4 tyre in its regional product range, while the tread design is also described by Bridgestone as an all-season tread pattern. The exact regional specification should therefore be matched to the vehicle and local operating conditions.

Comfort and Road Noise

Ride comfort and low road noise are important characteristics of the Dueler H/T 840. Its non-directional tread pattern is designed to reduce road noise, while the jointless cap ply helps provide a smooth ride and lower noise levels.

Construction and Durability

The tyre uses reinforced polyester body plies to support stability and steering response, while its durable tread is designed to provide long wear life and traction on unsealed surfaces. Bridgestone positions the Dueler H/T 840 as a premium highway tyre for drivers who want durability without giving up road comfort.

Production Year

This product is listed as a 2024 model-year tyre. The exact manufacturing date should be verified from the DOT or date code printed on the tyre sidewall.
