FS560 Plus steer tire adds six new sizes

Bridgestone Bandag Tire Solutions (BBTS) has added six sizes to its Firestone FS560 Plus tough-wearing steer lineup. Designed to deliver long wear and low cost per mile for P&D and local hauling applications, fleets can now select sizes 9R22.5 and 10R22.5 in “F” load ranges, 10R22.5 in “G” load ranges, and 255/70R22.5 and 275/70R22.5 in “H” load ranges, the company said. A 215/75R17.5 size for “H” load ranges will be available later this year. www.trucktires.com
