Michelin Introduces Larger Size XRS

Michelin Introduces Larger Size XRS™ Radial-DesignedScraper Tire to the Construction Market

LAS VEGAS, NEV. – The Michelin Earthmover Group has introduced a new size of its XRS radial tire to the marketplace. The new 37.5R39 XRS tire is manufactured for large scrapers and is designed to provide them with excellent longitudinal/lateral traction and exceptional tread and sidewall cut protection. It is the only E4 radial scraper tire available in the market.
The unique tread design of the XRS tire also helps minimize vibration, which correlates to enhanced ride comfort for the operator. Because of the superior traction characteristics of the tire, it helps maximize productivity.


“The Michelin XRS radial tire is making waves in the marketplace,” said Tomas Bennett, market segment manager for Michelin North America. “Customers like the tire because of its traction and durability. The reinforced sidewall and buttressed shoulder design help provide maximum protection and resilience in tough conditions. The aggressive, non-directional, deep tread pattern helps enhance productivity. That equates to longer tire wear, longer tire life and maximum uptime. We’re proud to put the Michelin name on it”


The XRS radial is available in 37.25R35 and 37.5R39.
