Yokohama’s Tim Easter talks OTR tyres
Supply and demand within the OTR tyre market has greatly fluctuated in recent years. While tyre makers could hardly keep up with demand only a couple of years ago, last year supply was much stronger than demand. Tim Easter, director of OTR sales for Yokohama Rubber’s US operation, Yokohama Tire Corporation (YTC), has shared his views on these OTR market ups and downs, what the outlook is for 2014 and beyond, and what products Yokohama is bringing to market.
