Testing tyres by torture in Texas proving ground
At the San Angelo area proving ground operated by Cleveland Tire and Rubber Co workers test tyres under extreme conditions to reveal wear and stability issues. Over inflation damages edges and alignment while aggressive driving and high speeds accelerate wear, with tests weighing tires every 100 miles and evaluating design and composition. The operation features a high speed circle, emergency readiness, and a large field where about 200 cattle are killed annually amid extensive track use.
