OTR’S REAPER TIRE DESIGNED FOR ZERO-TURN MOWERS AND GARDEN TRACTORS
ROME, Ga. – OTR Engineered Solutions (OTR) is offering its REAPER tire for multiple brands of zero-turn mowers and garden tractors. This tire combines a turf-specific design that yields superior traction, stability and control with aggressive styling that appeals to end customers.
The REAPER tire features a wider footprint to maintain surface contact that enhances stability and steering responsiveness as well. Additionally, a wrap-over grip edge enhances traction when driving on uneven terrain. This feature, combined with OTR’s unique tread design, delivers eye-catching styling for added value.
The proprietary all-season rubber compound used to make the REAPER tire optimizes performance in both wet and dry conditions. It also helps create softer sidewalls for a smooth ride.
