Goodyear, Continental, Nokian boost truck tyre portfolios

摘要

Three manufacturers have recently supplemented their truck portfolios with additional axle fitments. FOLLOWING THE MARKET/LAUNCH of the size 315/45 R 22.5 Conti EcoPlus HD3 drive axle tyre earlier this year, Continental has now rounded out its range for lowliners with the new 355/50 R 22.5 Conti EcoPlus HS3 steer axle tyre. The tyres were designed for long-distance use and regional transportation with frequent use of motorways. The tyre maker says the two low-profile tyres represent a "new tyre concept for towing vehicles" and enable fleet operators to make optimum use of the maximum three metre internal load height of their trailers without exceeding the maximum overall height of four metres permitted by European law.
