FINDLAY, Ohio — Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. has added three sizes to its Roadmaster RM272 truck tire line, which is engineered to withstand the demands of drop deck and spread axle trailers.
The sizes added are: 295/75R22.5 LR H, 11R22.5 LR H and 11R24.5 LR H. Other sizes available are: 245/70R17.5; 255/70R22.5; and 275/70R22.5.
The RM272 features a premium, high-scrub tread compound that provides improved tread wear and long-lasting protection against cutting and chipping in spread axle trailer applications, Cooper said.
The stone ejector ribs in the tire's grooves help preserve the casing for retreading, and the rounded shoulder design helps minimize the effect of high lateral forces on the tire.
