WEST CHICAGO, Ill., March 2, 2023 -- Titan International, Inc. (“Titan,” NYSE: TWI) and Summit Tractors LLC ("Summit") have entered into an agreement for tire & wheel assemblies for compact tractor models used in residential, commercial, and agricultural applications. This innovative Goodyear® R14T™ tire, made by Titan, will provide Summit tractor owners the durability and performance to handle numerous applications.
"When it came time to selecting our tire & wheel partner, we didn’t need to look any further than Titan," said Summit’s Founder & Chief Executive Officer Doug Rehor. "Their Goodyear R14T tires provide Summit brand tractor customers with the most versatile, high-performance tire technology available, blending the best characteristics of the R-1 ag, R-3 turf and R-4 industrial tires into a single tire. As we endeavor to include as much U.S. made products within our overall portfolio, the American made tire & wheel assemblies from Titan add to the overall value of our line of compact tractors and related equipment.”
"Titan is delighted to be partnering with Summit as they build out their footprint through leading farm & ranch and home improvement retailers," said Paul Reitz, Titan International CEO.
