Tire offer for every type of use 

BFGoodrich will be offering its first truck tire patterns in the region, which are mainly manufactured in Europe; the BFGoodrich ROUTE CONTROL and BFGoodrich CROSS CONTROL.

• The BFGoodrich ROUTE CONTROL truck tire is designed specifically for regional and highway use, offering an even tread wear for end-users in and out of the city because it:
  • Fights irregular wear by optimizing the contact patch and pressure distribution.
  • Minimizes sidewall damage and abrasion, especially on dual fitment.
  • Protects from road hazard damage with a reinforced crown.

• The BFGoodrich CROSS CONTROL truck tire is designed specifically for both on-road and off-road use, offering end-users a durable and cut-resistant product performance for the most demanding usage conditions which:
  • Ensures high grip from new to worn-out stage with an aggressive block tread pattern.
  • Maximizes the casing life with the help of an additional protective crown ply.
  • Reduces the risk of damage and downtime with a special anti-cut and chip tread.
