Cooper’s new Roadmaster sizes

Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. has added two new sizes to its Roadmaster RM272 commercial tire line, which is engineered to withstand the demands of drop-deck trailers. The RM272 is now available in sizes 11R22.5 and 295/75R22.5.

Designed to ward off irregular wear and damage due to curbing, Cooper says the RM272 features a four-belt steel casing and has a slightly rounded tread footprint, along with a reinforced shoulder to help withstand extreme side forces. Its tread compound has been formulated to provide optimum balance between resistance to side forces and maximum wear, the company says.
