The new Toyo M157 free-rolling axle tire for long haul, over the highway operations is U.S. EPA SmartWay verified and features the tiremaker’s proprietary e-balance technology. The result is a uniform and consistent tire that delivers improved fuel economy while fighting irregular wear, according to the company.
Fuel consumption is reduced by premium, low rolling resistance compounding in the tread and sidewall. At the same time, a new belt package and 13/32nds tread depth provide even contact pressure distribution across the tread surface, resulting in smooth wear and long life, Toyo said.
A “deep differential groove” design also minimizes irregular wear while stone ejector grooves minimize stone retention to help maintain casing integrity for a long service life, the tiremaker added.
The M157 is available in the following sizes: 11R22.5, 295/75R22.5, 11R24.5 and 285/75R24.5.
