Firestone FS561

This model is an all-position tire developed for commercial use to show performance in terms of long-wear, grip, uniform wear, handling responsiveness, traction, and load/people safety. It is recommended for steer application in regional haul, P&D services, but also for high-scrub service.

The FS561 model comes with a tread cap compound molded into a five-rib tread design to deliver excellent handling characteristics and improved adherence in wet and dry conditions. It uses an optimized footprint for better pressure distribution providing increased mileage, grip, superb traction, and load safety. Compared with Yokohama 103ZR this tire snows up to 10% better removal mileage.

For safety reasons, this model has sidewall protector ribs to combat initiation and spread of irregular wear reducing casing damage from cuts, snags, and other road hazards. Firestone engineers use innovative sidewall design to reduce tire weight for more fuel efficiency reducing annual costs. Four circumferential grooves guarantee increased hydroplaning resistance by better water and slush dispersion from under the tire contact patch, providing the best braking and grip performance. To prevent stone drilling and retention, this tire presents stone rejectors in the center groove maintaining casing integrity.

Firestone FS561 is available in 17.5, 19.5, 22.5, and 24.5-inch sizes, with variable tread depth depending on tire size. It is one of the best all-position/steer tire options for a wide range of commercial vehicles used in goods transportation and construction applications.
