It is known that Yokohama produces high quality and advanced rubber products. One of the most outstanding all position tires from the Yokohama lineup is the RY103. This model is a versatile and reliable tire designed for P&D, long distance, and regional services.
Yokohama RY103 shows performance also in trailer application, due to its optimized pattern design. Wide shoulder ribs reduce shoulder step wear for better handling and road stability in scrub conditions. Thanks to the specialized tread compound, RY103 shows a long lasting and optimal resistance to road hazards like bumps and borders. In addition, continuous center ribs improve rolling and handling in steer axle services. While straight five rib pattern with four grooves inhibits stone retention, thus promoting uniform wear and ride comfort along with superior handling and wet traction. To increase acoustic comfort and road adherence engineers use special cross siping and all new tread compound.
Yokohama RY103 has a stronger casing and thick sidewalls that support the tire even when the truck is overloaded, but also reduce the sidewall flex at the same time. If it is not enough, Yokohama offers a 6 year and three retreads warranty.
In conclusion, Yokohama RY103 is available for the US market in the following sizes: 275/70R22.5, and 215/75R17.5. It covers a big part of 18 wheelers, bulk trucks, parcel delivery trucks, and many trailers.
