Maximize Fleet Efficiency: Choose The Right Commercial Vehicle Tires
April 10, 2023
Tires
Without expert guidance, choosing the right commercial vehicle tires can be tough, and it’s only getting tougher as manufacturers roll out new options every year.
Today, there are hundreds of options to choose from, and even if you have a specific tire in mind before you set out, you’ll need to know the correct size, speed rating, and carrying capacity to avoid:
- Reduced fuel efficiency
- Accelerated tread wear
- Increased risk of tire failure
- Compromised safety and road performance
With so much at stake, it’s no wonder that tire-buying can be such a stressful task for fleet managers. To make matters worse, this task is time-sensitive, as tire replacement delays lead to costly fleet downtime.
Don’t worry—you don’t have to do it alone. With over 300 TIRECRAFT locations around the country, finding expert advice is easier than ever.

“Scrap tire data can be route specific, driver-specific, vehicle specific, geographically specific, application specific, etc.,” writes Kevin Rohlwing, senior vice president of training at the Tire Industry Association (Ingram, 2018). “By using the data from scrap tire analysis, it helps fleets get the most miles out of every casing and prevents a lot of problems before they happen.”
Scrap pile analyses are also an important part of the tire-buying process, allowing fleet managers to identify potential areas of improvement to address with their new tire fitments.
