A new premium drive tire from Toyo Tires offers 30/32 in. tread depth for improved wear and longer service life, the company said.

The M647 is designed for local, regional and long-haul highway applications and uses Toyo’s e-balance technology which minimizes growth of the tread profile, Toyo said, helping maintain a uniform and flatter tread radius.

Irregular wear is reduced by incorporating high rigidity in the shoulder and deep slits equal to the main groove depth helps maintain traction, according to the company.

The tire is available in a 295/75R22.5 in a 14-ply, load range G size.
