Prototype Goodyear military tyre cuts rolling resistance by 40%
Work on a new, low rolling resistance military tyre and other projects has earned Goodyear high praise from some of the American military’s former top brass. US senator and retired Navy secretary John Warner and vice admiral Dennis McGinn (retired), who is now vice chairman for the CNA Military Advisory Board, recently visited the tyre maker’s headquarters in Akron, Ohio as part of a US-wide tour sponsored by the Pew Project on National Security, Energy and Climate, a group dedicated to highlighting connections between national security, energy independence, the economy and climate change.
