Four New Sizes Available in April
GREENVILLE, S.C. – (April 1, 2007) – Uniroyal is introducing four new sizes of its popular Laredo® Cross Country tire, bringing the total number of sizes to 31, which covers 90 percent of the fitments for today’s most popular SUVs and light trucks. Known as a “power line” within the Uniroyal lineup, the Laredo Cross Country tire gives dealers an affordably priced, reliable tire backed by a 60,000-mile manufacturer’s treadwear limited warranty. The new sizes -- P255/65R16 106 S, LT235/85R16 LRE, P255/65R17 108 S, and P265/65R17 110 S -- fit a broad range of light truck vehicles, including Dodge Dakota, Durango and Ram 3500; Nissan Frontier, Pathfinder and XTerra; Toyota 4Runner, Sequoia, Tacoma and Tundra; Ford F-250 and F-350; and Lexus GX470. The Laredo Cross Country tire features TrU-Form Construction™ that creates a rounder tire to help ensure uniformity and durability with a highway ride that’s extremely quiet. Open tread grooves contribute to outstanding wet grip and all-season traction, while a full tread depth delivers long tread life and enhanced off-pavement traction. Additionally, the Laredo Cross Country tire has a square, stress-optimized contact patch that helps improve wear by fostering enhanced tread block stability and minimizing surface temperatures. Uniroyal Tire is one of the world's leading tire brands for passenger and commercial cars, pick-ups, light trucks, mini vans and sport utility vehicles. Dating back to 1892, Uniroyal Tire has developed a reputation for providing high-quality, affordable tires including its Tiger Paw® and Laredo® tire series.
