BKT Tractor Tires Fill the Void for Ken Jones Tires

Online, April 12, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Worcester, Massachusetts. April 12, 2010 -- Ken Jones Tires, a United States based specialty tire and tire chain retailer, has expanded their line of tractor tires by adding the BKT brand. As some tractor tire sizes become old, obsolete or have little demand in the US, some import brands such as BKT bring them back to the marketplace due to the demand in Europe, Asia and Latin America. With the increasing popularity of low priced import tractors being sold in the US market, demand for the tire sizes increase as well.
Vice President of Marketing Brian Jones says, "There is definitely a need for import tractor tire brands such as BKT. The price is attractive, the quality is very good and some of the sizes are only available from import brands. Customers also like the fact that many times the tires are heavier ply, which implies a more rugged, longer lasting tire. With the prices of American made tires escalating in recent years, the door was open for a good quality import tractor tire brand to do well in the US market"
An expanded tractor tire inventory allows Ken Jones Tires to offer more solutions to their customers. BKT joins other popular brands such as Carlisle, Titan, Goodyear and Firestone, many of which have an original equipment presence on US manufactured tractors. Ken Jones Tires keeps a steady supply and has a reputation as a reliable stocking warehouse for over 70 years.
