Key Features & Benefits

• Drive Axle Engineering: The L317 is purpose-built for drive axle positions on off-highway equipment, meaning its tread compound and casing construction are optimized to handle the torque, traction demands, and self-cleaning requirements of a powered axle in loose or rough terrain.
• Off-Highway Durability: Bridgestone's L-series designation indicates a loader/off-highway tire lineage built to resist cuts, chips, and abrasion from rock, gravel, and uneven ground surfaces common on active worksites.
• Heavy Load Capacity: The 12.00R24 footprint combined with an 18-ply rating signals substantial load-carrying capability, making this tire well-suited for heavy equipment such as large loaders, motor graders, and similar off-road machinery that routinely carry or move significant weight.
• Radial Construction: Radial tire construction provides a larger, more stable footprint than bias-ply alternatives, contributing to improved traction, better heat dissipation during extended operation, and reduced rolling resistance — all meaningful benefits in long-shift jobsite environments.
• Trusted Bridgestone Quality: Bridgestone is a globally recognized manufacturer with decades of experience producing off-highway and commercial tires for demanding industrial applications, lending confidence in casing integrity and long-term tread life.
