4WD Touring Australia – June 2018

DURABILITY MEANS RELIABILITY. They have a massive offroad wear life, no matter the terrain. From pindan dust, to
corrugations, to icy roads, to mud, to Queensland beaches, I’ve given my Dueler’s an absolute hiding.

SUPERIOR TRACTION. Tread blocks are engineered for maximum grip when the ground starts to slip. The noticeably wider
tread blocks offer extra chip resistance, plus their reinforced sidewalls distribute trackside stress more across the tyre.

A SMOOTH RIDE: They’re built to provide more uniform tread contact with the road. The seamless connection of the
jointless cap ply delivers improved uniformity, meaning a smoother ride and less road noise.

TOUGH CONSTRUCTION: The heavy steel belt cords at their core amounts to exceptional strength and elasticity. The
jointless cap ply helps Duelers to hold their shape at high speeds as well as improving vehicle stability.

GO ANYWHERE, GO EVERYWHERE. All of this would mean little if the highway performance was below par, but the
construction has been engineered to minimise highway noise and maximise comfort.

GO ANYWHERE. GO EVERYWHERE.


Of course, the extensive R&D done to perfect this All Terrain model has been
famous for a while. You probably already know the story... a team of engineers
and drivers tested them for half a million kilometres across everything the
Kimberley and the Simpson could dish out.
When you hit the tracks with them beneath your rig, the results are
immediately obvious...

Why the Bridgestone Dueler A/T 697 is THE all-round, oroad performance tyre.

It took me a number of years of driving across every type
of terrain imaginable to come to the conclusion that the
A/T 697 is the ultimate, allround, offroad performance tyre.
