Cooper Tire & Rubber Company has added new sizes to its Roadmaster RM272 tire line.

The tire, engineered to withstand the demands of drop deck and spread axle trailers, is now available in sizes 295/75R22.5 LR H, 11R22.5 LR H and 11R24.5 LR H.

The RM272 features a high-scrub tread compound that provides improved tread wear and solid, long-lasting protection against cutting and chipping in spread axle trailer applications. The stone ejector ribs in the tire’s grooves help preserve the casing for retreading, and the rounded shoulder design helps minimize the effect of high lateral forces on the tire.

“The RM272 is one tough tire. It’s backed by a strong six-year, two-retread warranty,” said Gary Schroeder, executive director of Cooper’s truck and bus tire business. “Adding additional sizes to this popular line allows us to meet our customers’ needs with a quality Roadmaster product.”

Nestled in between a thick wooded forest and a beautiful 13-acre lake in Ohio’s Mahoning County is a small farm and homestead. It’s unassuming, really. The kind of place you might pass right by without noticing on your way from here to there.

A little over a century-and-a-half ago, it was the birthplace of the man who would fundamentally change American agriculture forever, but today, that small farm is home to test tracks and testing facilities designed to put tomorrow’s farm tires to the test. To push the limits of what’s possible, pioneering the latest technology that allows farm tires to go where they never have before. To stand strong in the fields and ride soft on the roads. To tread lightly over soil and roots, while translating ever-increasing horsepower to traction in the fields.
