(tire description)
The HDR2+ is a versatile regional drive tire for trucks and buses with optimized cap/base tread compounds that boost wear performance, increase traction and protect against cutting and chipping. The chamfered tread block geometry withstands higher drive axle torque with reduced tearing and cracking. It also features a balanced footprint distribution for extended tread life and product performance, with simplified retreadability thanks to the Conti 3G Casing platform.

Vocations
- General Freight (Regional)
- Household Movers
- Hazardous Material Haulers
- School Buses
- Waste/Sanitation Transport
General Freight
- Fleets, trucks and drivers responsible for hauling general freight on a local or regional level
- Fleets typically handle a large variety of commodities and usually the trips are same-day return
- Some overlap exists with other categories such as long haul, refrigerated, leasing/rental and pickup/delivery
- Regional drive tires priorities include weight carrying capacity, durability, fuel efficiency, and traction
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, excessive deflection, alternating drive tire lug wear, and tramline wear
Household Movers
- Fleets, trucks, and drivers responsible for hauling time sensitive goods over great distances through multiple locations at high to medium speeds
- Operating conditions include long haul routes (for 53' trailers) and short-medium routes (for 26' straight trucks) with periods of frequent stops
- Drive tire priorities for this vocation include serviceability, even wear, scrub resistance, and traction
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, excessive deflection, spotty wear, curb damage, and impact breaks
Hazardous Material Haulers
- Fleets that engage in the transportation of hazardous materials in regional haul, typically on primary roads
- Protection against risk to life and property while transporting these materials is the primary goal
- Hazardous Material drive tires priorities include reliability, durability, even wear, and overall traction
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, heel/toe wear, shoulder pad separation, bead tears, rim damaage, and excessive deflection
School Buses
- Bus fleets usually owned by city municipalities, primarily carrying children passengers so safety is critical
- Regional operations require high scrub resistance due to tight turns and environment
- Drive tires for buses require serviceability, even wear, traction, and scrub resistance
- Tires subject to feather edge wear, cupping, shoulder wear, spotty wear, alternating drive tire lug wear, and excessive deflection
Waste & Sanitation Transport
- Fleets and trucks operate through the collection of garbage, recycling centers and waste disposal
- Freight consists of residential waste, commercial waste as well as treatment and waste disposal
- Operating conditions include short to intermediate routes with multiple stops, generating high heat from frequent braking
