Cut Operation Costs with Retread Tires
Are your fleet operation costs high? They can be if you’re buying new commercial tires whenever you need replacements. That’s why Rice Tire offers tire retreading that saves you money and keeps your trucks moving. We use Goodyear retreads that extend tire life and reduce costs for your business.
Why Choose Retread Tires?
Retread tires offer great benefits:
- Cost Effective: Retread tires are an affordable solution that can save on average as much as 30% – 50% when compared to buying new tires according to the Tire Retread & Repair Information Bureau (TRIB).
- Eco-Friendly: Retread tires are green; the retreading process uses less oil than new tires and allows you to extend the useful service life of your current tires, promoting resourcefulness.
- Safe: Retread tires are a practical solution that your truck drivers and equipment operators can rely on for like-new performance. The United States Department of Transportation requires certification for all retread tires.
The retread process starts with an inspection of your current tire to ensure it is safe to retread. Once a tire passes inspection, it is thoroughly buffed before the new tread is applied. All retread tires receive a final quality inspection before going back to you.
When’s The Best Time for Retread Tires?
Timing is important for your tires to be eligible for retreading. TRIB advises against waiting for tires to reach the legal minimum on your vehicle if you are considering having the tires retreaded. The likelihood of permanent casing damage increases at this depth because there is less rubber to provide protection. If you follow a recommended tire maintenance schedule, then you should be able to retread at least twice before the tire is no longer eligible for recapping.
Rice Tire has a reputation for excellent customer service and quality tire retreading. Our staff of personable and knowledgeable technicians will have your tires performing again in no time.
