New Milepro vs Recaps Testing

We just just finished testing a new set of tyres on a Scania bus rear drive.

Test was performed to compare quality and performance between new Milepro China product and recaps in same application with same vehicle. See the pic.

Brand / Type	Kilometres	Service Days	Rotations	CpK (per tyre)
Milepro New Tyre	32,174	148	1	0.45
Recaps – Set 1	57,745	217	1	0.39
Recaps – Set 2	57,075	259	1	0.40

Not only were previous recaps on vehicle for just over 2 months longer, but the recaps provided a 12.2% better overall CpK.

Watch this space for further testing!
