Alliance Brand Tires—Always Improving and Advantageous 

The Alliance AgriFlex+ 372 VF tire has been a perennial favorite among farmers for its high performance and long lifespan. Equipped on everything from tractors to combines to even tankers, the AgriFlex+ 372 has developed a reputation for its fantastic traction, superior load capacity, and gentle touch on sensitive soils. Despite all of this, Yokohama Off-Highway Tires decided to upgrade this popular product, put it to the test, and prove what farmers have known all along: the AgriFlex+ 372 is unrivaled in the industry.

Alliance Tire Americas, Inc. is now Yokohama Off-Highway Tires America, Inc. (YOHTA), the U.S. sales and marketing arm of Yokohama Off-Highway Tires (YOHT). Yokohama Rubber Co. Ltd., created YOHT to consolidate its off-the-road (OTR) tire businesses across the globe with the Alliance, Galaxy and Primex brands it acquired when the company purchased Alliance Tire Group (ATG) four years ago.
