Schmitz Cargobull, one of Europe´s leading trailer manufacturers, has approved Goodyear ULTRA GRIP MAX T as original equipment fitment on its trailers for customers operating in severe winter conditions.
Goodyear’s recently-introduced truck winter tyres will be available in sizes 385/65R22.5 and 385/55R22.5 for trailers destined for regions such as the Alps, the Nordic countries and Russia.
“We are delighted that Schmitz Cargobull has selected our new ULTRA GRIP MAX T winter tyres as original equipment for its trailers,” said Peter Platje, Director OE Sales Truck Tyres Goodyear Dunlop EMEA. “The performance these tyres offer in tough winter conditions is exactly what fleet operators should expect from a truck winter tyre: high traction and grip in severe winter conditions.”
With up to 40% more grip when half worn and up to 15% more mileage, the new ULTRA GRIP MAX winter truck tyre range really delivers. The range comprises the ULTRA GRIP MAX S steer tyre, ULTRA GRIP MAX D drive tyre and ULTRA GRIP MAX T trailer tyre. These are dedicated truck winter tyres and carry both the 3-Peak-Mountain-Snowflake (3PMSF) official winter tyre marking as well as the M+S symbol. Even when 50% worn, the drive tyres still qualify for the 3PMSF marking. With such excellent performance, the new Goodyear truck winter line helps to keep trucks going and gives peace of mind to drivers as well as fleet operators.
The full specification of the tyres fitted by Schmitz Cargobull are 385/65R22.5 160K 158L TL and 385/55R22.5 160K 158L TL.
