In general, logistics and freight companies are interested in tires first with high longevity, toughness, and rolling resistance. These also should provide greater traction, stability, and grip performance. In other words, the tire must resist and support tires heavy-duty applications, where strength and durability are required.
One of the most highlighted steer position tires from Goodyear's lineup which incorporates all of these is the Marathon LHS. This model is the best commercial tire in steer position services but is also optimal for trailer axles. It benefits from an advanced and durable at the same time tread compound shaped into an optimized tread pattern. Five rib design with continuous center ribs and closed shoulders puts more rubber on the road, thus delivering exceptional grip and steering precision over dry and wet surfaces. On the other side, this type of pattern provides great acoustic comfort, which is an important aspect in long distance applications.
Goodyear Marathon LHS is present on the market in the following sizes: 11R22.5, 11R24.5, 285/75R24.5, and 295/75R22.5. This model incorporates one of the best technology, the FuelMax to minimize rolling resistance and can make great savings for your company. Best of all, it has a legendary Goodyear casing that supports and resists the loads. It presents a good carrying capacity starting from 6,175 lbs for 285/75R24.5 up to 7,160 lbs for 285/75R22.5. It is one of the best matches for many day and sleeper cab tractors used in long haul services.
