FREEPORT, Ill. (June 17, 2015) — Titan Tire Corp. has restarted production of Goodyear-brand ATV and UTV tire designs at its Freeport plant for the first time since 2009.
The move is in line with an agreement with Goodyear signed last August and includes run-flat versions for the first time.
“There's a growing customer demand for high-quality, American-made tires that can cater to a wide range of two- and four-wheel drive ATV and UTV applications,” said Holly O'Neill, consumer sales specialist at Titan International.
“With industry-exclusive designs — like our Extended Mobility Technology with run-flat capabilities — and a range of unique tread styles, we feel strongly that the Goodyear ATV lineup is well-suited to meet the needs in the market, and we're happy to bring the line back into production.”
Titan has nearly 70 sizes and styles of Goodyear ATV tires in production at the Freeport plant.
Titan is offering six lines of ATV/UTV tires:
- Tracker — Designed with five tread style variations for versatile performance in snow, mud or utility applications. Sizes range from AT22x10-9 to AT27x12-12;
- Rawhide — Available in self-cleaning, deep-tread styles for gaining traction and flotation in challenging conditions, such as mud, clay, sand and bogs. Sizes range from 21x11.00-8 NHS to 26x11-12'
- ATT — Created for two- and four-wheel drive ATVs that require performance in the areas of traction, steering response, and ride comfort. Sizes range from AT25x11-9 to 25x10-12;
