Each driver should know that the most important tire for your vehicle is the front tires used on steer axles. Therefore, engineers recommend fitting your car with quality tires. Yokohama produces a wide range of rubber products that are very suitable for steer position applications.
For example, Yokohama 101ZL Spec-2 is all new and all position tire for line haul services. Built with an advanced tread compound and optimized tread design this model allows longer treadwear, maximum durability, and multiple retreads. Five rib design with massive shoulder with decoupling grooves controls road stress for stable and precise steering. Specialized compound withstands wear and tear generated by lateral forces. Optimized and wide contact area resists uneven wear for powerful wet handling and braking.
Best of all, to increase load/driver safety, Yokohama 101ZL Spec-2 has a special internal casing developed to support the belt package for more durability and strength. While highly reinforced bead provides less heat formation in the bead. Due to the premium quality casing, the tire shows increased load capacity up to 7,160lbs (H load rating) to carry more freight on daily trips. On the other hand, this tire presents four straight circumferential grooves with a special siping design responsible to boost water and slush evacuation for more contact with the asphalt.
Yokohama 101ZL Spec-2 is produced in a wide variety of sizes with 22.5 and 24.5-inch rim diameters. It covers a big part of tractor heads, box trucks, and semi trailer platforms.
