Project Objectives:

To test several off-the-road (OTR) tyres for their estimated composition of rubber, additives and fillers, and the proportion of reinforcing materials*.

Tyres Tested:

  • 14 tyres of different sizes and types were tested, using the tread and sidewall via a cross-section piece of an OTR tyre.
  • Tyres were selected based on availability and use in Australia.

*Testing was done by Smithers Tire Testing – an independent and commercial tyre testing facility.
