Corrugated cooling fins effectively dissipate heat for long tread life, and a chamfered solid shoulder counters lateral forces in high scrub applications. A balanced rib ratio distributes pressure evenly for long tread life.

“This is a very important step in the continued progress of Ralson commercial truck tires in the US,” said Mark Roe, vice president of sales for Ralson Tire North America. “With its extensive number of locations and outstanding reputation in the trucking industry, Love’s provides an ideal servicing network for Ralson.”

With more than 430 maintenance shops, Love’s Truck Care and Speedco combined is the largest over-the-road oil change, preventive maintenance and total truck care nationwide network with more than 1,400 maintenance bays and 1,100 emergency roadside vehicles available for customers, Love’s said.

Ralson, based in India, entered the U.S. tire market in 2023.
