Sterling Truck Corp's all-new Sterling Bullet will stay on the job — thanks to new Goodyear Unisteel commercial tires especially made for traction-challenged work sites. Sterling selected Goodyear tires in size 225/70R19.5 for the new model that complements the company's light-duty commercial truck offering.

Goodyear's new G622 RSD regional service drive tire meets the tough demands of urban pick-up and delivery work. An aggressive “blading scheme” and stiffened shoulders deliver improved traction and even wear, according to Rich Cottrell, Goodyear original-equipment account executive.

The Bullet also rides on the G647 RSS tire for severe regional service. A high scrub-resistant tread compound provides optimal service in tough pick-up and delivery applications where turning, braking, and backing are extreme.

Both tires are manufactured at Goodyear's facility in Topeka KS.
