GREENVILLE, S.C. – The Michelin® XZSL™ Stabil’X® tire is the first radial designed to deliver long life, superior performance and significant cost savings in skid steer applications.

The Michelin XZSL steel-belted radial tire has a steel casing and special rubber compounds that increase resistance to cuts and abrasions for fewer flats and longer tread life. It delivers enhanced traction and handling and a smooth, stable ride. It also features an aggressive, non-directional tread pattern that leaves fewer marks on concrete and pavement.

“The XZSL tire uses Michelin’s exclusive radial technology to eliminate many common tire problems such as fast wear and frequent flats,” said Michael Ford, market segment manager for skid steer applications. “It is specifically designed for skid steer loaders and will deliver higher productivity, less downtime and lower tire costs for those operations.”

The XZSL Stabil’X radial skid steer tire is available in the following sizes: 27x8.5R15, 10R16.5, 12R16.5, 335/80R18, 335/80R20, 375/75R20, 405/70R20, 425/75R20..
