Titan Delivers First Production 63-inch Tyre and Wheel Assemblies

Titan Tire Corporation shipped its first giant 63-inch OTR tyre and wheel assemblies on July 29. These tyres, each measuring nearly 14 feet or 4.3 metres tall and weighing approximately 5.7 tonnes, are being shipped to Canada’s oil sands for use in mining applications.

“A lot of people in the industry doubted that Titan could build these giant tyres in less than a year,” said Titan Chairman and CEO Maurice M. Taylor Jr. “I am happy to prove to them that we are committed to achieving the company’s goals.”
