TGI Demonstrates Capabilities of Cosmo GripIt XT

Tire Group International LLC (TGI) showed off the capabilities of its Cosmo GripIt XT light truck tire at a recent ride-and-drive event in Peru.

More than 100 guests from the United States, Latin America and the Caribbean, including dealers and distributors “who share the same passion for marketing the Cosmo brand,” according to TGI officials, participated in the event.

They put the Cosmo GripIt through the paces at an exclusive desert test track designed by TGI.

"The GripIt easily tackled every obstacle and challenging terrain we threw its way and left me feeling in total control due to the exceptional performance and handling,” says Levi Weaver of Import/Export Tires, while Allen Mott of Allen Rubber says the Cosmo GripIt “performed flawlessly, from handling the sandy terrain to mud. Cosmo has a winner with this product.”

The event, Kool Kat Adventure Peru 2025, also saw guests strap into “high-performance side-by-sides driven by professional guides for extreme desert rides, carving through an additional five-mile sand track built exclusively for the event. ATVs offered even more changes to explore the dunes."

"Cosmo Tires is honored to have hosted such a wonderful and dedicated group of partners,” says TGI CEO Tony Gonzalez. “We are more excited than ever about the future as we continue growing our lifestyle brand together.”
