"The expansion of the Michelin X Line Grip D lineup reflects our commitment to delivering unmatched performance across every mile of the tire's life," says Yahn Heurlin, vice president of B2B marketing at Michelin North America. "Fleets have validated the performance of the Michelin X Line Grip D tire in real–world conditions and now we are expanding that same trusted performance through an additional size offering and a retread solution engineered to deliver the same performance as the new tire." 

The Line Grip D features the DURACORE casing, engineered for maximum durability and retreadability. It's designed to deliver up to a million miles with up to four retreads, Michelin says. The retread is engineered with the same tread design and compound technology as the original tire. 

It's available in 11R22.5 H, 11R22.5 G and 295/75R22.5.
