From the Paper
"Goodyear has developed many aviation and other technologies, but they are also at the forefront of heavy equipment tires and transport. In 1923, the company developed corded pneumatic truck tires, and they pioneered research on rayon cord used for constructing truck tires. They created the Earthmover tire in 1934, and developed the rayon cord truck tire in 1935, in 1938, they developed their largest truck tire that could carry 25,000 pounds, and developed amphibious and cold-weather tires, as well. In 1955, the company developed the first tubeless Earthmover and grader tires, as well. Continuing to develop new technologies, the company created the Unisteel truck tire with radial wire and three-ply "belts" in 1958. In 1970, they introduced Polyglas tires for trucks, campers, and vans, and they produced the first tires to ever touch the moon's surface. In the late 70s, they developed the Tiempo, an all-season radial tire that became the most popular tire in their history, and in 1992, they introduced the first "run-flat" tires. They continue to innovate and develop new technologies today, and they have received numerous awards over their 100-plus-year history in technology, design, and innovation."
