The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. announced enhancements to three tire lines intended to help to help deliver reduced rolling resistance for better fuel efficiency, as well as long miles to removal, on commercial trucks.

The G399A LHS Fuel Max, the G572A LHD Fuel Max and the G392A SSD with DuraSeal + Fuel Max wide-base tire – all U.S. Environmental Protection Agency SmartWay-verified – use Goodyear’s Fuel Max Technology, which contains fuel-saving compounds and advanced design technology to help reduce rolling resistance and improve tread life.

“When it comes to helping fleets reduce their total cost of ownership, Goodyear is in it for the long haul,” says Brian Buckham, marketing manager for Goodyear Commercial Tire Systems. “These enhanced tires will help fleets lower their fuel bills, while still delivering long miles to removal. Both of these factors help reduce the fleet’s cost per mile.”
