Titan Expands Goodyear Farm Tire OPTITRAC line

QUINCY, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Goodyear Farm Tires made by Titan Tire Corporation has expanded its OPTITRAC™ line of radial agricultural farm tires. The OPTITRAC design features a self-cleaning tread action and an improved mold shape that helps create a smoother ride.
“We designed the OPTITRAC with a 25 percent deeper lug compared to conventional R-1 tires,” said Jeff Vasichek, vice president of sales and marketing. “This design provides for more aggressive traction in heavy-tillage applications. The new design also offers longer tread wear while the reinforced bead area helps the tractor withstand the forces of higher-torque applications and allows for increased loading.”
A 45-degree tread lug angle promotes more open space on the lugs for better cleaning and improved traction — especially on soft, moist soil. The lug configuration and mold shape was modified, helping to enhance handling and performance in the field and on the road. These design features also result in a smoother ride, thereby reducing operator fatigue.
“The OPTITRAC tire line was developed in concert with our original equipment manufacturers,” said Vasichek. “Tractors are becoming more high tech, and the OPTITRAC design meets the performance needs of modern tractors.”
OPTITRAC is ideal for heavy, wet soil conditions and is available in extra-wide flotation sizes for superior traction. Sizes include a DT800 for narrow row crops, DT806 with a standard 85 aspect ratio, DT812 with a 70 aspect ratio, DT818 with 65 aspect ratio, China Water Pump DT824 in larger volume 540 to 800mm widths, and a DT830 super large volume in 900mm and up widths.
The OPTITRAC line of tires also feature the modern global design desired by farmers today using state-of-the-art technology and thorough testing for durability and quality. Additional sizes will be introduced in the coming months.
