Hankook Supplying Tyres for Ford Focus

(Akron/Tire Review) Hankook’s Optimo H725 all-season touring tyre will be OE on the 2007 Ford Focus, Hankook Tire America Corp. announced. The tyre will be fitted in size P195/60R15. “This new Ford Focus application for our tyres is another major step forward in growing our brand position here in the U.S.,” said Bill Bainbridge, Hankook’s marketing director. “As more and more OE vehicle manufacturers select our brand with confidence, that will translate to driving more consumers to look for the Hankook brand when choosing replacement tyres.” Globally, Hankook supplies tyres to Ford, Hyundai, Volkswagen, Kia, Volvo, GM and Mitsubishi, among others.
