Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. rolled out an improved casing warranty for its commercial line of medium truck and bus radial (TBR) tires. Specifically, the casing value has been increased to $110 for the first retread on many popular sizes. Toyo also offers a rubber allowance of up to $50 based on the remaining tread depth of the tire. The new, 66-month warranty applies to Toyo commercial truck tires purchased after Oct. 10, 2013.
Both fleet and independent operators will benefit from this improved warranty as it applies to the retreading of casings, noted Lowell Slimp, senior product manager, commercial truck tires, Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. “Toyo Tires commercial tire products continue to receive praise on their retreadability from independent tire dealers throughout the U.S.,” he said. “We are offering our improved casing warranty to further demonstrate the benefits of using Toyo brand commercial tires to help reduce the cost per mile for fleets and independent operations.”
