Giti Tire launches next generation drive axle tyre at CV Show

Giti Tire has launched the GT Radial GDR638 high-performance, next generation drive axle tyre at the CV Show in Birmingham this week.

The GT Radial GDR638 high-performance, next generation drive axle tyre is specifically designed for medium-sized trucks and buses.

The new pattern features four longitudinal grooves to provide good traction and braking with improved vehicle stability and driver comfort, while a new casing and footprint design delivers regular wear with high-mileage potential.

The GDR638 is available initially in 245/70R17.5 and 235/75R17.5, with seven further 17.5” and 19.5” sizes due before the end of the year.

With 22 GT Radial patterns on show from a range consisting of 28, the stand is split into road, combi, urban, mixed and winter to allow for a far more defined customer experience.

Other products on show include the GSR225 Combi Road steer axle, which is Euro VI compliant on all steer applications, the GAU861 all-position urban city-bus, the GAM831 non-directional, all-position mixed service, GSW226 winter-marked high-traction steer axle plus the GAR820 regional all-position tyres.
