June 9, 2010

Michelin North America Inc. has introduced a new Uniroyal brand passenger tire, the Tiger Paw GTZ All Season. The tire will be available July 1 in 25 sizes, ranging from 16 inches to 18 inches in diameter.

The Tiger Paw GTZ All Season contains Uniroyal's Dura Sheild technology, which includes pyramidal steel belts, insulating belt strips and a heavy gauge inner liner. "All of these parts help the tire absorb impact, reduce stress, run cooler and extend belt and tire life," say Michelin officials.

Other features include the company's Tiger Claw tread design, a solid center rib, optimized tread compound, and more.
