The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company announced two new truck tires that employ the company’s latest technology.
The Goodyear G661 HSA is a regional all-position tire now available, and the Goodyear G662 RSA with Fuel Max Technology is intended for regional and local haul applications. Regional fleets drive an average of less than 500 miles per day and have a mix of highway or inner-city miles, together with local or city driving.
The G661 HSA features a high scrub-resistant tread, with a multi-compound construction that helps to extend tread life when used in local applications that require frequent turning, backing and braking. Four full-size, super-tensile steel belts help reinforce the tread for enhanced toughness. The G662 RSA is the first regional tire with Goodyear’s Fuel Max Technology. It offers a 22/32-inch tread depth, which helps deliver longer original tread life. A pressure distribution groove, located on the shoulder area, helps to direct pressure away from the tire for uniform treadwear and long tread life.
