July 19, 2005 BFGoodrich® Provides First-Class Rubber For Nissan's NISMO Vehicles Greenville, S.C. An ultra-high octane vehicle deserves ultra-high performance tires, so it's no wonder BFGoodrich Tires are featured on the Nissan NISMO 350Z and NISMO Titan, Frontier and Pathfinder, specially equipped, aftermarket-tuned versions of Nissan cars, trucks and SUVs. "Car designers, tuners and motorsports enthusiasts alike know a performance machine is only as good as the rubber underneath," said Owen Schiano, BFGoodrich Tires brand director. "BFGoodrich tires are recognized as "true performance" tires just as NISMO is the top end of Nissan's performance offering. Combined, the combination is hard to beat.." NISMO-tuned Nissan Z®s wear the BFGoodrich g-Force T/A®KD, a performance tire delivering superb traction and excellent cornering force for a wide range of vehicles. As the only asymmetric and directional tire available in the United States, the g-Force T/A®KD remains one of today's most in-demand sport tires. With its near-race compound, the g-Force T/AKD offers excellent treadwear for an ultra-high performance tire, which makes it an ideal tire for the NISMO Z. A key aspect of the g-Force T/AKD is BFGoodrich Tires' BlackTech™ tread compound, which maximizes traction on dry pavement while resisting heat buildup. Its variety of fitment sizes add to the popularity of this class-leading tire. Combining the off-road looks and performance of an all-terrain tire with excellent ride and long mileage, the BFGoodrich Rugged-Trail T/A is a perfect match for any NISMO Frontier, Pathfinder or Titan. The Rugged-Trail features a tread pattern and aggressive sidewall appearance adapted from BFGoodrich's legendary SCORE Baja Series-dominating tire. Its dual-compound tread and optimized tread contact patch help reduce squirm and minimize surface temperatures, extending the life of the tire. BFGoodrich® Tires combines technological expertise with vast motorsports experience, delivering a high-performance tire for every type of vehicle from ultra-high performance tuner vehicles, sports cars and SUVs to the hottest sport trucks, pickups and rock-crawling rigs in the world. For more than 30 years, BFGoodrich Tires has used motorsports as a proving ground. Success on the street begins with winning on the track and BFGoodrich Tires is involved in every type of racing, including oval, sports car, drag, desert and extreme rock-crawling. With 19 consecutive Baja 1000 wins, the most wins in rock-crawling history, and an unmatched record on pavement, BFGoodrich Tires has proven the only records it breaks are its own.
