Yokohama names truck tire giveaway winner

June 9, 2010

Yokohama Tire Corp. has awarded eight Yokohama 703ZL drive tires and two Yokohama 101ZL steer tires to an Ohio trucker as part of a recent giveaway.

Bill Britton of Orwell, Ohio, entered the contest at the Mid-America Trucking Show, which was held this past March.

The giveaway also includes free installation and valve stems at the Yokohama dealer of the winner's choice, according to John Cooney, Yokohama director of commercial sales.

The 101ZL will be officially launched this fall in four sizes: 295/75R22.5, 11R22.5, 11R24.5 and 285/75R24.5. The 703ZL, currently available, is part of Yokohama's Zenvironment line of low rolling resistance truck tires.
