A million good reasons for buying Goodyear OPTITRAC farm tires

Just before the start of SIMA on February 22, 2009, one of Europe’s largest agricultural shows in Paris, France, Goodyear will have sold 1 million units of its immensely popular OPTITRAC tire range.
Manuel Pintado, Managing Director of Goodyear’s European farm business comments: “The success of our OPTITRAC range is a result of its excellent tire traction, low soil compaction, its long life and high comfort when riding at higher speeds on the road. Our sales force has demonstrated with facts and figures to countless end-users across Europe that Goodyear OPTITRAC provides tremendous versatility at low cost over its long tire life. The extensive size line-up in OPTITRAC allows you to do all kinds of work, fast, secure and at low cost, throughout the year in any soil condition. This is what the sophisticated European farmers want”
Goodyear OPTITRAC first arrived on the European farm scene with the introduction of the DT812, 70 series tire. The DT812 set the benchmark for field traction and mileage and was complemented by the DT818, 65 series variant. Goodyear OPTITRAC tires use similar internal construction, tire shape, lug configuration, premium tread depth and a modern sidewall styling. The range was further extended by the DT824 volume range, DT830 super volume range and DT800 in row crop sizes. After this extension, the DT806, 85 series tire was introduced, making the OPTITRAC range a family of six successful tire ranges. Goodyear expanded the OPTITRAC range with a series of tire sizes fitting the next generation of 65 km/h, high speed, high power, 4WD tractors named OPTITRAC R+. To date OPTITRAC R+ is available in 13 sizes allowing multiple front and rear size combinations. Its outstanding, top of the range performance is appreciated by many OE and replacement customers. The OPTITRAC range is available in 118 different size and load combinations meeting the needs of the farming community not only in Europe but worldwide.
Engineers at the Goodyear Technical Center in Luxembourg are working hard on the next extension of the successful Goodyear OPTITRAC range which upon successful completion of all laboratory, wheel and field evaluations .
