OPA Eases Truck Recapping Rationing To Aid Tire Supply
The State OPA Office announces removal of rationing on truck recapping services as of tomorrow. Reclaimed tires once Grade 1 are reclassified Grade 3 to stretch miles, with synthetic rubber stocks improving. Officials say this should curb replacement demand and ease local rationing boards while camelback tires remain limited to commercial vehicles.
