One of the most highlighted all position tires for on and off highway applications is Yokohama MY507. This model is developed especially for bulk trucks, waste haul trucks, dump trucks, and many other commercial trucks.
Yokohama MY507 has a specialized tread compound molded into a deep closed tread pattern. Wide and rigid shoulder blocks resist load stress in high scrub and off highway conditions. Up to 26/32nds deep tread and two rows of aggressive center blocks show high performance when it comes to traction, grip, and durability. Another role of closed shoulder design is to ensure more protection against lateral impacts and abrasion. Special contra diagonal ribs provide great directional and steering stability, confident traction, and strong braking. In addition, a wide footprint allows uniform load stress distribution for short braking distance and extra miles. To expel rapid water and traction on both wet and dry surfaces, engineers use three tread grooves coupled with special grooves between center blocks.
For safety reasons, this model has specially designed steel and nylon chafers that provide double the strength and reliability. While high strength belt construction adds good resistance against rust and stone penetration damage while minimizing tread distortion and heat generation. In addition, funnel-shaped step grooves combined with special stone ejector platforms prevent rocks and debris retention. Deep and zigzag tread grooves allow rapid water and slush channel for more contact with the road surfaces. A durable compound minimizes heat build generation, thus reducing the risk of tread separation.
Best of all, Yokohama MY507 is available for the US market in the following sizes: 275/70 R22.5, 255/70 R22.5, 12R22.5, 11R22.5, and 11R24.5 with 16-ply ratings. In conclusion, is one of the best all position tires for highway, regional and urban applications.
