Goodyear updates tire model

Goodyear has introduced an updated tire for pick-up and delivery applications – the Goodyear G661 HSA 19.5 in. The company says the updated tire helps deliver long miles to removal and scrub resistance so trucks can navigate streets, alleys and roads with confidence.

“There has always been a strong need in the pick-up and delivery segment for tires that deliver a high degree of scrub resistance,” says Norberto Flores, brand manager, Goodyear Commercial Tire Systems. “With the growth of on-line shopping and home delivery, pick-up and delivery fleets also want a tire with long tread life. The Goodyear G661 HSA 19.5” offers both benefits and more.”

The G661 HSA 19.5” is available in size 245/70R19.5, Load Range G. Another size, 225/70R19.5, also Load Range G, will be available in July 2013, the company says.

“The G661 HSA 19.5” is a great all-around player that we believe will become the tire of choice for pick-up and delivery fleets that want to optimize their tire performance and investment,” says Flores.
