About Firestone
Origin and Expansion
Firestone is an American multinational tyre manufacturing company based in Tennesse, USA. Founded in 1900, the company initially started as a supplier for solid rubber side-wire tyres, pneumatic wagon tyres, buggies and other forms of wheel transportation prevalent in that era. Today, the company produces tyres for consumers, commercial space, agriculture and off-roading.
The company is named after founder Harvey Firestone, who had friendly relations with Henry Ford. Hence, he formed a partnership with Ford Motors for OEM supply. Firestone was also active in the replacement tyre market. The company was acquired by Bridgestone in 1988, with the American division changing its name to Bridgestone Americas Tyre Corporation in 2008. The brand also manufactures natural rubber, fibres & textiles, polymers, tubes and other industrial products.
Bridgestone/Firestone duo also manufactures tyres under the Fuzion brand in China as a budget replacement tyre. Bridgestone launched the Firestone brand in India in 2016 in a move to provide tyres for passengers cars and SUVs. The tyres are being manufactured in Bridgestone’s two plants located in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh.
In terms of expansion, when Bridgestone took over Firestone, it gave the company a large number of manufacturing sites in North, Central and South America, Europe, and other locations. Bridgestone also started operations in Turkey under a joint agreement in 1988. Further, the successful integration efforts of Bridgestone with Firestone resulted in high profits in 1992 and the subsequent establishment of a new American and European headquarters location for Bridgestone.
Firestone invented radial-ply passenger tyres known as ‘Shape of the Future’ for lightweight European and American cars. The tyre was so unique that it was instantly accepted by several auto manufacturers as an OEM tyre in high-performance cars, made in 1967. The same concept of wide and low profile tyres continued to be a popular choice throughout the century.
Firestone has been active in motorsports right from the beginning. The company provided tyres for a car in Indianapolis 500 auto race in 1911 and it won the tournament. Over the years from 1920 to 1966, several Indianapolis 500 racing tournaments were won by cars using Firestone tyres. The company also supplied tyres to Formula One championship from 1950 to 1974 and in the same year, to Formula 5000. The tyremaker took a break from motorsports before finally returning in 1995 to the CART series and then becoming the sole supplier of IndyCar Series in 2021.
The tyremaker has been sponsoring several events. It has been the title sponsor of the IndyCar Series since 2014 and retains the naming rights in the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. Firestone was also the title sponsor of Laguna Seca Season Finale and sponsored the All Points East festival thrice. In 2019, Firestone served as presenting sponsor of Motorsports Hall of Fame of America (MSHFA) in the 32nd annual induction ceremony.
