Construction, dump, cement mixers and other mixed-service fleets will soon have access to two new Goodyear commercial truck tires that will help their trucks travel across challenging surfaces.
The new Goodyear G731 MSA and G751 MSA mixed-service tires will be available this summer. Fleets will be able to buy several sizes of these tires with Goodyear’s exclusive DuraSeal Technology. Goodyear DuraSeal Technology is a gel-like rubber compound that is built into the tire’s casing at the time of manufacture and instantly seals nail-hole punctures of up to ¼-inch in diameter in the repairable area of a tire’s tread.
Both the G731 MSA and G751 MSA also contain other features to help fleets lower their operating costs. The G731 MSA, which is designed for 20 percent on-road and 80 percent off-road service applications, features:
- More wearable rubber volume that offers up to 5 percent more miles to removal than its predecessor, the Goodyear G288 MSA
- Special tread compound for enhanced resistance to cuts, chips and tears
- Lower rolling resistance construction and greenhouse gas emission-compliancy for enhanced fuel efficiency
- A wider footprint for extra traction and stability
- A sturdy, tough casing for retreading to improve a fleet’s tire return on investment and more
The tire will be offered in the following sizes: 11R22.5 (with DuraSeal Technology); 12R22.5; 11R22.5; 11R24.5; 275/70R22.5; and 255/70R22.5.
The G751 MSA, which is designed for 80 percent on-road and 20 percent off-road service applications, features:
- A high-scrub tread compound for cut, chip and tear resistance and more wearable rubber. “It also provides up to 50% more miles to removal than its predecessor, the Goodyear G287 MSA,” noted Buckham
- A wider footprint to help improve stability and traction
- Lower rolling resistance construction and greenhouse gas emission-compliancy for enhanced fuel efficiency
- A sturdy, tough casing for retreading to improve a fleet’s tire return on investment and more
The G751 MSA will be available in the following sizes: 11R22.5 (with DuraSeal Technology); 315/80R22.5 (with DuraSeal Technology); 12R22.5; 12R24.5; 11R22.5; 11R24.5; and 315/80R22.5.
