Goodyear Re-Tools Truck Tyre Site

Goodyear has reworked its commercial tyre Web site – www.goodyear.com/truck – making it easier for fleet maintenance managers and owners to take advantage of the company’s various educational tools and data, the tyremaker said. Steve McClellan, Goodyear vice president of commercial tyre systems, said the company is moving “more of its process controls online, and a new, more-relevant Web site is an obvious addition.” The site features a dealer locator; allows users to find tyres by application, wheel position or size; fleet management tools; information about Goodyear’s emergency roadside assistance program; information about software and Web-based tools to help track tyre costs, tyre performance and retreading; and tyre technology updates.

“Besides providing premium tyres with superior casings, we’ve sought to be a resource of knowledge for our customers. We want to help them better manage their tires and the associated costs,” McClellan said. The new site also provides information on fuel economy, safety tips, load information, service manuals, warranties, publications and product brochures. (Tire Review/Akron)
