# Maximizing Performance with Proper Tire Pressure
Compare a logging operation of today with those of the not-so-distant past and one thing is obvious—the machines on site have grown considerably in both size and power. While the need to increase operational productivity and efficiency is driving the adoption of larger, more powerful equipment, it is also presenting new challenges. Luckily, there’s a simple step operators can take to overcome these challenges and make the most of their tires (and, subsequently, their machines): check tire air pressure frequently.

# Softening Solid Tires for Cooler and More Comfortable Ride
More and more operators are outfitting their equipment with solid tires as industries such as construction, recycling, and mining face increasingly tight margins. Solid tires help minimize downtime caused by flats, can last two to three times longer than a pneumatic tire, and have a reputation for delivering a low total cost of ownership. Also becoming more commonplace is the appearance of small openings, or apertures, on solid tires. But what is an aperture and how does it work?

# Finding New Ways to Connect with Customers
As a producer of application-specific tires, it’s vital for us to support our dealers so that our customers get the best possible tires for their machine, application, and needs. We work with our dealers in many ways. For example, we have a packed event calendar and our sales team is always in the field supporting our extensive dealer network. We do a lot of posting about our tires on our blog, our [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWFxiz7p5Hwo370wwGaD55g) channel, and through social media platforms such as [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/AllianceTireAmericas/) and [Twitter](https://twitter.com/AllianceTire), which is where today’s Tire Tale starts.

# Why More Customers are Choosing Solid Tires
From construction sites to scrap yards, the use of solid tires on skid steers is becoming more and more commonplace.

Below are some of the sectors that are driving the interest in solids and some of the reasons why solids are ideal for those industries.
