Tire Selection for Distribution Fleets
Columbia-based distributors should consider:
- Regional haul: Balanced tread life and fuel economy
- Local delivery: All-position versatility
- Long-haul: Low rolling resistance compounds
- Mixed service: Durable drive axle tires
Climate Considerations
Columbia's humid subtropical climate affects tires:
- Hot summers (90°F+) increase pressure—check weekly
- Mild winters (40°F avg) still require pressure adjustment
