Bridgestone Firestone North American Tire's Greatec wide base drive and trailer radials have been added to the EPA SmartWay-certified list of commercial tires.
Tires that earn EPA SmartWay certification must achieve at least 3 percent better fuel economy than the average new tire. In 2004, SmartWay created a long-term initiative for shippers and carriers of all sizes to improve fuel economy and reduce tailpipe emissions. The program helps fleets make choices when spec'ing for optimum fuel efficiency - including recommendations for both new and replacement tires. Fleets participating in the SmartWay program are urged to use SmartWay-certified tires for the life of their equipment.
Greatec wide base tires weigh less than the dual assemblies they replace, saving weight for greater fuel savings as well as more payload for weight-conscious truck owners. Greatec trailer radials have a 14/32? tread depth and a pattern similar to the ultra-economical R195F trailer radial.
