But product improvement is no stranger to truck tires — witness new fuel-efficient treads and the hybrid tire designs that feature closed shoulders yet retain discontinuous center ribs and deep tread depths. And there's the ongoing introduction of new tires designed to provide safe, smooth rides while holding the line on tire cost per mile.

It lists the tires and treads that each of the leading manufacturers recommends for 13 specific wheel-position and service applications.
