What has CFI done as a Partner? • Converted our entire tractor fleet to Wide Base Tire Technology.

Trailers also being converted to Wide Base Tires

Advantages of Wide Base Tires • Improved Fuel Mileage by 2/10’s of a mile per gallon & an additional 2/10’s for the trailer. • Cooler brakes due to more air moving around the exposed drum = longer brake life and better stopping. • Easier tire pressure checking with no inside valve stem to find.

Advantages of Wide Base Tires (continued) • Fewer tires & wheels to manage as our fleet converts from 18 -Wheelers to 10 Wheelers. • Drivers can visually see a low tire and do something about it before it’s too late.
