Designed for severe service applications
The Toyo Tires M588 Heavy Duty On/Off Road Drive
Tire is built for severe service applications including oil, gas,
mining and logging operations. The M588 offers a 33/32”
tread depth and chip-resistant compound. Side protectors
help protect the tire from cut damage by rocks and the
continued use of snow chains in severe winter regions. The
tread block arrangement is a high-void design to provide
better mud and snow traction. Stone ejectors, mud breaks
and aligned inline lateral grooves help remove packed mud
and prevent snow chains from dropping into the grooves.
Two 16-ply sizes are available, an 11R22.5 and an 11R24.5.

Correct off-center wheel stud alignment
The Ken-Tool Pilot Sleeve is a line of wheel centering
sleeves for steel or aluminum commercial
truck steer wheels, drive wheels and inside/outside
dual wheels which use two-piece flange nuts. The
sleeves are designed to correct off-center wheel
stud alignment on wheel mounting holes, which
if uncorrected, can lead to out-of-tolerance radial
wheel runout, the company says. The sleeves are
made from durable, non-corrosive mil-spec grade
polyamide polymer, and the self-sizing sleeves take
up the gap between the 22mm wheel studs and
the 26mm wheel mount holes. These patent-pending
sleeves are available in a 6-pc package (No.
30331) and in bulk pails of 100-pc (No. 30332) and
1,000-pc (No. 30333).
