Omni United USA Goodride CR989 Line Haul Steer, CM983 Closed Shoulder Drive, CM980 Open Shoulder Drive, and the CR915 Line Haul Trailer tires all received SmartWay verification from the U.S. EPA. The EPA has determined that certain tire models can reduce NOx emissions and fuel use by 3% or greater, relative to the best-selling new tires for line haul trucks, when these products are used on all three axles.
The company also received SmartWay verification on RoadLux R116 Line Haul Steer, R216 All Position Rib, R516 Closed Shoulder Drive, and the R120 Line Haul Trailer tires. All these verified low rolling resistance tires are specifically listed on the EPA’s verified technology list.
