Incorporating an innovative tread design that creates a Virtual Rib, the GREEN XLR EARTH 65+subscribes to the GREEN XLR EARTH Series, which is developed to protect and nurture the earth. It is produced with 37.5% sustainable materials while delivering on superior functional properties to drive high performance and productivity for tractors across global markets.
The distinguishing feature of the Virtual Rib sets the GREEN XLR EARTH 65+ apart from other 65 series radial agriculture tires. It provides enhanced driving comfort both on, as well as off-road and improves steering precision and guidance for tractors at higher speeds. More importantly, the innovative curve of the lug angle at the center has been designed for improved fuel efficiency and greater off-road traction to enhance tire life span.
Like the GREEN XLR EARTH Series which was introduced earlier at the Farm Progress Show in Iowa, United States in August 2022, the GREEN XLR EARTH 65+ also includes bio-sourced, sustainable, and recycled materials. This tire, which is also of the earthy green color, is built with pure natural rubber, highly dispersible silica, recycled carbon black, and reclaimed rubber from used tires. Natural soybean oil, which is a sustainable material, has also been used instead of petroleum-based oil, and the carbon footprint has been reduced as it is produced using bio-sourced and recycled materials.
