Roadmaster RM832

The Roadmaster RM832 is Roadmaster’s newest SmartWay verified long-haul steer tire, engineered to deliver long miles to removal and significant fuel savings. For on-highway fleets in Atlanta and Marietta, Georgia, that prioritize a low total cost of ownership, the RM832 combines an innovative tread design with a 2nd-generation fuel-efficient compound to provide exceptional performance and durability exclusively on the steer axle.

Tread Design and Longevity

The RM832 is built from the ground up for durability and even wear, ensuring it provides a long, reliable service life in demanding line-haul applications.

Key features of the tread design include:

1. Decoupling Rib Design: A patent-pending shoulder-decoupling rib is engineered to promote even shoulder wear and enhance durability by accommodating the unique stresses placed on the steer axle.
2. 2nd-Generation Energy Max Compound: This next-generation rubber compound is a key component of the tire’s low rolling resistance, which is essential for achieving its SmartWay verification and delivering fuel efficiency.
3. Stone Protector Ledges: Ledges are incorporated into the center grooves to help resist stone penetration and eject debris, preserving the casing for retreading.
4. Deep 22/32″ Tread: A deep tread depth provides a large volume of wearable rubber, directly contributing to long original mileage.

Performance and Speed

The Roadmaster RM832 in size 295/75R22.5 is offered in both Load Range G (14-Ply) and H (16-Ply), providing options for various tractor weights and load requirements. Its ‘L’ speed rating allows for sustained highway speeds of up to 75 mph. The tire’s primary performance characteristic is its low rolling resistance, which translates directly into fuel savings over the life of the tire.
