The Goodyear Armor Max Pro Grade MSD is a premium medium-duty commercial truck tire engineered for the most demanding mixed-service drive axle applications. Purpose-built for severe-duty vocational fleet operations — including waste haul, construction, cement, dump, and coal field service — this tire delivers all-season toughness and reliability that professional fleets depend on, both on the highway and at challenging off-road jobsites.
Building on the proven foundation of the Goodyear G177, the Armor Max Pro Grade MSD delivers enhanced traction, improved miles-to-removal, and superior retreadability as part of the Goodyear Total Solution for commercial fleets. Select variants are available with Goodyear's exclusive DuraSeal Technology — the only built-in tire sealant offered by a commercial truck tire manufacturer — which instantly seals nail-hole punctures up to ¼-inch in diameter in the repairable tread area, keeping trucks on the road and minimizing costly downtime.
Key Features:
- Aggressive mixed-service tread design — Deep, rugged lug pattern with optimized groove geometry delivers consistent traction across dirt, gravel, mud, and paved surfaces
- High-tear-resistant tread compound — Tough, wear-resistant compound resists chipping, chunking, cuts, and punctures to extend tread life in abrasive jobsite environments
- Mixed-service undertread compound — Specialized undertread layer maintains casing integrity under heavy load and driving pressure for enhanced structural durability
- Cool-running base compound — Reduces heat buildup during extended operation, promoting long tread life and contributing to lower rolling resistance
- Premium reinforced casing construction — Heavy-duty casing maximizes retreadability, extending total tire service life and lowering fleet cost-per-mile
- Stone ejection design — Tread geometry actively ejects rocks and resists stone retention to protect the casing and preserve retreadability
- GHG-compliant fuel efficiency — Lower rolling resistance design meets Greenhouse Gas compliance requirements while supporting improved fleet fuel economy
- Optional DuraSeal Technology — Available on select variants; instantly seals nail-hole punctures up to ¼-inch in the repairable tread area to reduce unplanned downtime
Proven Fleet Applications:
- Waste collection, construction, cement, dump, utility, and mixed-service fleet operations
- Drive axle position fitment on medium-duty commercial trucks and buses
- Backed by Goodyear's commercial tire warranty and nationwide service network
The Goodyear Armor Max Pro Grade MSD is available in multiple load ratings to fit a wide range of medium-duty commercial truck applications, making it a versatile core component of any fleet tire program focused on durability, casing longevity, and total cost of ownership.
