The G682 RSD Fuel Max retread is available in 225 mm width. Widths of 215 mm and 235 mm will be available in June.

“Whether traveling up and down hills or moving away from loading docks, regional fleets want a truck tire retread that offers exceptional fuel economy, traction and mileage,” Flores said. “The G682 RSD Fuel Max helps deliver these qualities.”
