Continental truck tires are now standard on all International PayStar, WorkStar, and DuraStar severe service and medium duty vehicles, according to an announcement by Navistar International Corp. and Continental Tire North America, Inc.
"International truck customers count on their vehicles to provide heavy duty performance and maximum uptime, even in the most demanding conditions,” said Tom Fanning, director of OE sales for Continental The Americas. “Now they can rely upon their Continental truck tires to work in tandem with these powerful vehicles, providing the top-level reliability and high mileage that can only come from a tire engineered to handle the toughest driving conditions.”
Continental’s expansion into the regional, on/off highway and construction segment is backed up by truck tires engineered with maximum resistance to damage, tread patterns designed for optimum traction, extra tough compounding and stone ejection systems, the company said.
"The severe-duty cycle of International WorkStar and PayStar trucks required a tire selection that can perform under these conditions, and Continental truck tires have the intelligent engineering and durability required," said Melissa Gauger, vocational marketing manager for Navistar.
