TY517 is equipped with the best Yokohama premium design concepts to meet stringent, modern fleet performance demands.
There's power in these drive axle tires - maximum power. The popular TY517 drive tire delivers outstanding traction, long even wear and superior durability. STEM-2 technology enables this tough performer to stand up to destructive forces, resulting in multiple retreads and lower maintenance costs.
28/32” Rib-block Tread Depth. Delivers long wear and road-grabbing power for the long haul without any compromises in traction. "Compare this to the Michelin tread depths," my opinion here.
Tapered Center Groove. This center-shaped groove promotes stone ejection and reduces tread-stone damage for enhanced casing life and retreadability.
Solid Outer Shoulder. Strong, durable, solid shoulder block ensures flat, even wear on all types of 2- and 3-axle tractors and trucks.
Three Large Circumferential Grooves. Extra wide, self-cleaning, V-shaped grooves for improved water dispersion, lateral stability and long, even wear. Mud and snow rated for drive power in the toughest of conditions.
STEM-2 Technology for extended casing life, extended retread life, and extended durability. Our STEM-2 technology extends the life of the casing by redirecting normally destructive stress forces.
Rock-ejecting, center-groove platform enhances casing life and retreadability by minimizing damage to the casing.
By the way, it is not a noisy tire.
The front tires were new so I haven't had to deal with those yet. The TY517 are drive tires.
Good luck in your search,
