“More people ride on Goodyear than any other kind.” That familiar phrase dates back to 1916, testament to the company’s long-standing success in tires for trucks, trailers, and other commercial vehicles. Story angles include tire selection; maintenance; retreads; tire-management software; and advanced tire technologies like DuraSeal and FuelMax. Media contacts: Doug Siefkes or Gregory Van Tighem
