Goodyear introduces Kelly light truck tire

March 26, 2009

Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. has rolled out the Kelly Safari TSR all-terrain light truck tire.

Initially available this spring in 12 sizes, ranging from 15 inches to 18 inches in diameter, the tire targets the Dodge Ram, Ford F-Series, Toyota Tacoma and other vehicles.

Features include a patented rock tread pattern for extra traction; staggered shoulder blocks to aid handling in mud, sand and gravel; zig-zap siping for wet weather handling; and others.

The Safari TSR comes with a 30-day test drive, "which allows a consumer to buy the tires with an opportunity to try them for 30 days," say Goodyear officials. "If not completely satisfied with the tires within that period, they can be exchanged for a different set of Kelly tires."
