DALLAS, Tex. — Hankook Tire America rolled into Dallas for the Great American Trucking Show (GATS) from Aug. 23 to 25 to exhibit its new line of trailer tires.

Hankook unveiled the TL01 radial tire, which features a six-rib design for line haul trailer applications. These new tires aim to provide low rolling resistance, for increased mileage and fuel economy; multi-angled siping in the interior ribs for improved wet traction; and a defense groove on the outer rib to enhance irregular wear resistance.

The tires also include centre groove stone ejectors that add a layer of protection against stone drilling.

Hankook Tire is very proud to showcase our new and existing products at the Great American Trucking Show, said Brian Sheehey, director of commercial tires. With our new TL01 trailer tires and the tire size expansion, trucking fleets and owner/operators alike can expect superior traction, increased mileage and improved fuel efficiency.
