Toyo Introduces New M154 Ultra-Premium Regional Highway Truck Tire

ARTICLE TOOLS        | E-MailPrint

CYPRESS, CA– Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp.’s new M154TM ultra-premium, all-steel regional highway tire for medium trucks was created using e-balance, Toyo’s new proprietary design technology for commercial truck tires that focuses on a stiffer belt package, stiffer bead construction, and optimization through computer simulation technology. This new e-balance design results in improved fuel consumption, according to Toyo.

The Toyo M154 will be available this spring in a 295/75R22.5. Future sizes include a 285/75R24.5 in the summer; 11R22.5 and 11R24.5, both in LRG and LRH, in the fall; and 265/75R22.5 and 245/75R22.5 near the end of 2008.

When Fleet Collides With HR

By Mike Antich
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (also known as HIPAA) makes it a criminal act to divulge medical information to a third-party without the employee’s permission.
