RTA Bets $100 on Retread Challenge
The Retread Tire Association announced that it would donate $100 to back up the company’s Retread Challenge, which
is meant to prove the safety of tyre retreads.
Because tyre debris is often blamed on retreaded truck tyres, the RTA is offering a tour of a modern retread facility to anyone to show how much care goes into producing a retreaded tyre. If the visitor is still not convinced of a retread’s safety, the RTA will donate $100 to that person’s charity of choice, in that person’s name.
“This is a serious offer because we believe that a visit will open their minds to the benefits of top
quality retreads,” said Harvey Brodsky, managing director of the RTA. “We are willing to put our money where our mouth is, no questions asked.” Brodsky says that debris is made up equally between new tyres and retreaded tyres despite common misconceptions.
“The true reason that tyres fail and throw tyre debris on our highways is because of improper maintenance, with underinflation being the main cause,” said Brodsky.
