Michelin Earthmover and Industrial Tires offers the MICHELIN XZR tire for airport ground support vehicles, as well as for lift trucks in the materials handling industry and street sweepers. The XZR tire provides increased operator comfort, speed capability and traction compared to the current Michelin offering for these applications. The tire is engineered for cooler running due to its tread pattern, specialized rubber compounds and radial design, allowing equipment to operate at speeds up to 31 mph (50 kmh). With the grip of the multi-block tread pattern, high lug ratio and large optimized contact area, the XZR tire offers significant levels of traction and stability for year-round use. The tread pattern and its compounding are also designed to maximize tire life and minimize irregular wear. The tire is available in two sizes: 6.00R9 and 7.00R12. The XZR tire is guaranteed under both the Michelin 90-day and six-month guarantees. For more inforamtion visit www.michelinearthmover.com.
