Hankook Tire has announced that its most popular truck and bus radial products are now available at Love’s Travel Stops, Speedco and on-site Love’s Truck Tire Care locations.
Hankook’s e3 Max AL21 long haul steer tire, e2 Max DL21 long haul drive tire and e3 Max TL21 trailer tire will be available at Love’s locations. Each of the tires are designed by Hankook for improved performance in safety, mileage, anti-chip and cut, retreadability and traction, according to the company.
For extended lifetime, Hankook combined a durable and efficient casing with an optimized bead profile, enabling improved reatreadability. Other design elements related to rolling resistance, weight distribution and rubber compounds are also aimed at better performance in the fuel efficiency and traction categories.
“We are thrilled to be part of Love’s strong network to further help professional truck drivers stay safe on the road,” said Rob Williams, senior director of TBR Sales, Hankook Tire America. “These three TBR tires cover fleets’ needs, axle-to-axle, all of which are SmartWay approved and designed to be dependable and go the distance.”
As part of the partnership between the two companies, Hankook and Love’s are offering savings up to $110 on a set of two Hankook steer tires and up to $240 on a set of eight Hankook drive and trailer tires at more than 350 Love’s locations across the United States. A purchase of the two Hankook steer tires also includes a tire balance.
