Ultra Long Mileage
Yokohama used advanced technology to design the RY587 specifically
for long haul trailer tire use. This state-of-the-art tire will provide
thousands of trouble-free miles, use less fuel, and provide protection
from scuffing and irregular wear.

Long Even Wear
Incorporating advanced technology from
steer axle designs to control the occurrence
of shoulder step-down wear, the RY587
includes "stress control grooves." The SC
Groove minimizes pressure at the edge of
the tread, resulting in a dramatic reduction
of free-rolling wear, thus providing longer,
even wear over the life of the tire.

Built-in Durability
Stone Ejector Ribs prevent stones from
reaching the bottom of the groove where
premature casing damage can start.
Yokohama's unique Belt Edge Cushion
and Edge Cover Sheet allow steel belt
edge flexibility by bonding tightly for
reduced strain and longer casing life.

Enhanced Wet Traction
Distinctive Five-Rib Tread Design allows
for effective water evacuation from under
the tread, reducing hydroplaning and
increasing wet traction. Extra deep sipes
maintain sharp edge effects for enhanced wet
grip through the stages of wear.

Low Rolling Resistance for Less Fuel Usage
As an industry leader in reducing rolling
resistance, Yokohama has designed the
RY587 with advanced tread compound
technology to maximize grip and provide
long wear, while reducing rolling resistance, resulting in lower
fuel consumption.
