Bridgestone Battlax Sport Touring T33: A Worthy Successor?

The Bridgestone Battlax Sport Touring T32 has performed well in recent tests, but the competition is fierce. It's time for a successor that raises the bar even higher.

What to expect from the Bridgestone T33

• Improved wet grip: This is a critical area for Bridgestone to address. The T32 showed some weakness in wet conditions, and the T33 needs to be significantly better.
• Longer tread life: Sport-touring tires need to not only grip well but also last. The T33 should therefore offer higher mileage than the T32.
• Increased comfort: Sport-touring tires shouldn't just be sporty, they should also be comfortable. The T33 should provide a pleasant ride, even on long journeys.
• New-generation rubber compound: A new rubber compound could bring improvements in all areas.

What we don't know yet:

• Release date: Bridgestone will present the T33 in November 2024 and the first standad size should be available January 2025
• Price: The T33 will likely cost slightly more than the Bridgestone T32
• Available sizes: The T33 will probably come in the same sizes as the T32.
• Bridgestone T33 GT - There will no more GT version

Conclusion:

The Bridgestone Battlax Sport Touring T33 has the potential to be a true leader in its class. If Bridgestone can improve upon the points mentioned above, the T33 could become the new benchmark in the sport-touring tire category.
