-

SLIGO farmers looking for top of the range tyres can avail of up to 12 more sizes that have been added to the Alliance Agri Star II radial tractor tyre range, thus further completing the portfolio.

They can be ordered now through Yokohama Off-Highway Tires distributi­on network across Europe, with Coyne Tyres in Ballina part of this network.

“We see with enormous pride that customers in different markets such as Spain, Italy, Netherland­s and France, for example, highly appreciate and value the Agri Star II and give very positive feedback via our field engineers and distributi­on partners”, says Angelo Noronha, president at Yokohama Off-Highway Tires.

The Alliance Agri Star II excels in terms of performanc­e, prolonged traction, durability – and design – thus offering excellent value for money. These features are strongly rewarded by the market, turning this pattern into a continuous­ly growing success story.

“It is highly motivating to see that quality and performanc­e of Alliance tyres and particular­ly the Agri Star II receives more and more recognitio­n.

This is mirrored in customer feedback from various markets,” highlights Angelo Noronha.

“Particular comments reached us from France, referring to the good balance between grip and preservati­on of the soil, efficiency and quality, the level of performanc­e and comfort that was reported to match that of more expensive brands, and hence a price-performanc­e ratio that is in favour of the Agri Star II.

“Comments from Italy particular­ly addressed more adherence, more powerful traction and more stability in the field, also when the soil is wet, in addition to self-cleaning characteri­stics that were reported to clearly exceed those of the tyre brands used before.

“In another example, feedback from Spain included comments on the excellent experience­s with the Alliance brand in general and the Agri Star II in particular, which led to recommendi­ng this pattern to other farmers. “And of course, the fact that Agri Star ll is nominated as ‘Best Agricultur­al Tire’ for the prestigiou­s Spanish Premios Hevea Award.” The new sizes for 70 series include: 240/70R16, 360/70R28, 520/70R30, 260/70R20, 580/70R42. In the 85, series the following can be ordered as of now: 250/85R24, 280/85R20, 320/85R34, 420/80R46. In the 90-95 series: 210/95R16, 320/90R42, 420/90R30.
