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.

Launching a new brand of truck tires is a huge task, even for a company with a global reputation for the quality of its Galaxy, Alliance and Primex off-highway tire (OHT) brands. Truckers want to know that the new line of Galaxy truck tires have proven themselves on the road.

ATG Introduces the Galaxy Truck Tire Line

Alliance Tire Americas has launched a new line of truck and bus radial (TBR) tires under its Galaxy brand. The new Galaxy TBR line includes 10 designs and more than 40 sizes of 16-ply, all-steel radials, with plans for continued expansion. The new Galaxy family of truck and bus radials includes long-haul, regional and long/short hybrid tires for steer, drive and trailer positions.

YOHTA Introduces the Galaxy Garden Pro XTD

The "XTD" designation in the Galaxy Garden Pro line's size expansion stands for "extra tread depth," getting right to the heart of one of the big benefits of the new compact tractor tire line extension from Yokohama Off-Highway Tires America (YOHTA).
