“The new 907W offers significantly longer tread life and better performance in the snow,” said Tom Clauer, Yokohama’s senior manager of commercial product planning. “With a deeper tread and rugged new compound, fleets can expect to get reliable snow traction and powerful snow braking for multiple winter seasons.”
Backed by a seven-year unlimited retread casing warranty, the tire is offered in sizes 295/75R22.5, 11R22.5 and 11R24.5. Designed to combat heel and toe wear, the 907W features a 27/32” tread depth, an advanced compound to resist scrubbing, cutting, and chipping, and power ribs with 3D sipes and four zig-zag grooves for greater traction.
