Tires mounted on spread axle trailers often see  challenging conditions. That’s why The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co has  developed a new tire for spread axle trailer applications.

  “The Goodyear G619 RST has been engineered to resist  scrubbing and curb impact,” said Andrea Berryman, segment marketing manager,  Goodyear Commercial Tire Systems.

  Features of the new G619 RST include a deep, 18/32-inch  tread depth to help promote long tread life; a high scrub compound that helps  resist curb damage; a four-belt casing to help provide toughness; and a robust  rib design to help minimize tread tear.

  The tire is available in size 295/75R22.5 in Load Range  G. Three new sizes—11R22.5, 11R24.5, and 285/75R24.5, all Load Range G—will be  released during the second quarter of 2012.
