Kyocera Corp., http://global.kyocera.com Toyo's drive tire Toyo's M677 four- groove SmartWay- verifi ed drive tire is built to maximize fuel effi ciency for regional and long- haul operations. The tire's lower rolling resistance comes from a silica compound that helps reduce energy loss without sacrifi cing tread life, as well as large tread blocks designed to resist cuts and chips, a wide 28/32- deep tread and a closed high-rigidity shoulder rib that also delivers extend- ed wear life. The company's proprietary e-balance technology also is engineered to pro- mote added wear life and improved retreadability, while a computer- optimized tread design with deep slits between the tread blocks helps provide added traction. The M677 is available in four sizes: 295/75R22.5, 285/75R24.5, 11R22.5 and 11R24.5. Toyo Tire, www.toyotires.com/commercial • PRODUCTS PROFILE
