Michelin North America Inc. announces it will launch its BFGoodrich HD-Terrain T/A KT tire on April 1, 2023.
“While the work environment can be demanding on vehicles, most of today’s tire options are not designed to resist high torque and extreme chipping and tearing, but instead are designed for recreational off-road vehicles and applications,” says Stephen Peters, brand director, BFGoodrich.
“The BFGoodrich HD-Terrain T/A KT tire fills a void in the market. Our offer is purposely built for consumers who want a longer-lasting tire even if they drive heavy-duty trucks.”
The HD-Terrain includes features such as chip-and-tear durability and “tough” sidewalls, “mud-phobic” bars and a serrated should design to allow the tire to move through gravel and mud, according to Michelin officials.
The tire also features CoreGard technology, which offers protection against sidewall splitting.
In addition, the HD-Terrain tire will wear “Baja Champion” on its sidewall after a SCORE Baja 500 class victory in 2021.
