Alliance Tire Group together with its German distributor Bohnenkamp sponsored an extreme high-altitude truck expedition in the Ojos del Saldo mountains in South America. The expedition's aim was to install high-mountain shelters and lifesaving solar-powered emergency radio communication systems. The team, led by Matthias Jeschke, on two Unimog trucks mounted on Alliance tires, reached the height of 6400 meters (just under 21,000 feet) and successfully completed the mission.

A unique, two-layered lug design delivers better traction, more biting edges and extra eye appeal in the new Alliance Agri Star II radial line of R-1 farm tires, launched today by Alliance Tire Americas, Inc. The new lugs combine a single-angle layer stacked on top of a wider, multi-angle lug in a design Alliance calls Stratified Layer Technology, which offers a more stable, longer-lasting tread bar with added biting edges for better traction.

The Alliance 398 Multipurpose Tire (MPT) from Alliance Tire Group (ATG)—a high-speed radial farm tire rated to 62 mph on the road and capable of providing low-compaction, high-traction performance in the field—won a silver medal in the Agritechnica Innovation Award program. The J-rated Alliance 398 MPT is designed to enhance the performance of heavy trucks and trailers that are used both in the field and on the road, including manure tanks, feed trucks and trucks used to haul grain. Its U.S. launch was at last year's Farm Progress Show and will be on display at this year's Agritechnica.

Farmers can receive rebates of $100 to $125 per tire on purchases of two to 16 qualifying Alliance Agriflex increased flexion (IF) or very high flexion (VF) tires under an autumn rebate announced today by Alliance Tire Americas, Inc. The rebate covers more than 80 sizes and tread patterns among Alliance's Agriflex 354, 363, 372 and 389 tire lines purchased between August 15 and October 31, 2019.

The new Alliance Agriflex+ 372 VF CFO tire from Alliance Tire Group is rated to carry 186 percent of the load of a comparably sized standard radial tire when operating at harvest speeds of under 10 mph. The new tire is a VF800/65R32 CFO, which replaces the 30.5R32 tires commonly found on many grain carts and Class V, VI and VII harvesters. It is rated for loads as high as 26,370 pounds when used in cyclic conditions, such as harvest.
