Light truck tires manufactured using SRI Compound Masterbatch have successfully cleared the 5,000 km mark under normal commercial road conditions while carrying maximum payload. Reaching this very significant benchmark means that from this point forward the evaluation process will be identical to that of a normal production tire. SRI has achieved an industry first as no other comparable material has previously qualified at this level.  These road test results show very similar wear patterns even down to axel related variations and have thus far cleared the evaluation process without issue. Having crossed the 10,000 km threshold, we await official measurement results and will be publishing them in due course.

RRI inspecting inspecting light truck tire

SRI is pleased to announce 2,500km mark of the RRI on the road validation trials of our light truck tires  has been passed successfully. The RRI results confirm no appreciable difference in abrasion resistance and performance to date. SRI will be clearing the 5,000km mark in the coming week. This is a significant performance marker for new tires. SRI now expects to quickly progress through the protocol so that we may carry out the required tests with European Light truck compounds.
