Contributing to sustainable mobility with longer tread life for urban and regional transportation, the Michelin Agilis HD Z 19.5 tire rolls the competition.
The Agilis HD Z 19.5 tire will replace the Michelin XZE tire in the two current 19.5” sizes (225/70R19.5 LRG and 245/70R19.5 LRH) in October. Offering exceptional durability, mileage, and wet traction for high-stress urban and regional commercial applications, the Agilis HD Z 19.5 tire delivers the same great performance of the Michelin XZE tire with improved rolling resistance.

“Urban and regional drivers rely heavily on their tires for performance. Having vehicles down can cost owners and fleet managers thousands of dollars a day in lost deliveries,” said Jaye Young, B2B onroad marketing director for Michelin North America.
“The new Michelin Agilis HD Z 19.5 tire is the natural evolution of our already best-selling Michelin XZE brand, offering 34% more miles, better wet grip, and lower rolling resistence than the leading competitors. This makes the Agilis HD Z tire a tremendous investment for owners and managers looking to get the most out of their tires and maximize their investment.”
How it works:
Groove-bottom protectors – help deliver additional defense against stone drilling.
Variable-pitch groove walls – help prevent stones from lodging in the tread, to extend casing life and improve retreadability.
Full-width protector ply – helps protect the working plies from bruising and penetrations, lowering downtime.
Curb guards – provides sidewall and shoulder protection.
