The tiremaker says its aggressive drive is ideal for rugged applications in logging, construction, mining, refuse or oil field service.
The FD835, the first of a new generation of Firestone on/off-highway tires, has an aggressive block tread pattern for superior traction both on and off the highway. Angled sipes positioned in each block cut through rain for solid wet-surface handling. An extra-deep open shoulder design provides outstanding traction on soft surfaces, including mud and snow, according to Firestone.
With a tread over one full inch deep, the FD835 offers exceptional removal mileage. Ultra-tough tread compounds combat cuts, chips, chunks and tears for long tread life even in severe service, the company said.
The new FD835 is available in the 11R24.5 size with an H load rating, and is usable to 65 mph. For more information, visit www.Firestonetrucktires.com. (Tire Review/Akron)
