Prove it to yourself
Make the only test that really matters - on your routes, with your drivers
and your loads. By replacing dual assemblies, wide base radials can lower tire and wheel costs, improve fuel economy and most importantly, increase payload.

If you own or manage a weight-conscious fleet that typically "grosses out" before it "cubes out," switching
to Greatec could increase your payload from 624 lb. to nearly 1,200 lb. Think about what that could mean to you in extra revenue, trips saved and costs cut. Prove it to yourself and call your dealer today!
 

 1,184 lb. saved means
this much extra payload

1,184 lb. = (approx.)
193 gallons of gasoline
138 gallons of milk
154 gallons of fuel oil
40 cases of bottled water
61 cases of canned diet soda
More payload • Better fuel economy • Lower tire inventory costs
A. Aggressive tread
Computer-engineered blocks are shaped and positioned to bite into soft surfaces for excellent traction, even on mud and snow.
B. Rugged compound
Specially designed to produce stiff blocks that resist tread squirm for long tread life. Buttressed shape fights block tearing for even more miles of smooth wear.
C. Stabilizing solid shoulder design
Distributes weight and torque to fight irregular wear and block squirm for outstanding even wear.

D. Casing-saving stone rejector platforms
Prevent trapped stones from pushing deeper into tread grooves and piercing belt layer, damaging the belts, and exposing them to rust.

E. Mineral-additive innerliner
Innovative design significantly reduces inflation losses and fights oxidation of steel cords for longer tire life.

F. Stronger T.I.P.™ bead design
Exclusive T.I.P. (Turn-In Ply) design wraps body ply around bead bundle to help reduce ply end stress and enhance durability.

 

  A. Casing-saving stone rejector platforms
Prevent trapped stones from pushing deeper into tread grooves and piercing belt layer,
damaging the belts, and exposing them to rust.
B. Stress-relief sipes
Fight irregular wear by absorbing rib edge stresses in the footprint. Promote even wear for higher mileage.
C. Thirsty cross-rib sipes
Improve wet traction by slicing through water for a solid grip on wet roads.

D. Equalizer Rib™ design
Patented design promotes even rib wear. This small rib absorbs irregular wear
forces to fight initiation and spread of edge wear on main ribs.

E. Tough sidewall protection
Thick ribs fight curbing damage to protect the casing. If one side wears away, flip the tire over for continued protection.

  F. Mineral-additive innerliner
Innovative design significantly reduces inflation losses and fights oxidation of steel cords for longer tire life.
