Goodyear makes spread axle trailer tire
Nov 1, 2012 12:00 PM
Tires mounted on spread axle trailers often see challenging conditions. That's why The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co has developed a new tire for spread axle trailer applications.
“The Goodyear G619 RST has been engineered to resist scrubbing and curb impact,” said Andrea Berryman, segment marketing manager, Goodyear Commercial Tire Systems.
Features of the new G619 RST include a deep, 18/32-inch tread depth to help promote long tread life; a high scrub compound that helps resist curb damage; a four-belt casing to help provide toughness; and a robust rib design to help minimize tread tear.
The tire is available in size 295/75R22.5 in Load Range G. Three new sizes — 11R22.5, 11R24.5, and 285/75R24.5, all Load Range G — will be released during the second quarter of 2012.
