Yokohama’s 715R open shoulder regional drive tire is SmartWay-verified for low rolling resistance and available in a 11R22.5, with three more sizes – 295/75R22.5, 285/75R24.5 and 11R24.5 – set to arrive in early 2020. Longer wear is facilitated by a deep 26/32-inch tread pattern and an advanced tread design featuring strategically placed tie bars that control block movement and help minimize heel/toe wear. Sturdy, open shoulder blocks are spaced to help maximize traction and minimize the retention of foreign objects. Yokohama’s proprietary compound is cut- and chip-resistant and helps reduce rolling resistance for added fuel economy, while a 16-ply construction and an H load-rating both enhance load capacity.
