From meal kits and medical supplies to same-day Amazon orders, last-mile delivery has become the backbone of U.S. logistics. Summer only intensifies that demand. Roads get busier, temperatures spike, and the miles pile up fast. If you’re driving a light truck or delivery van, your tires are under pressure—literally.
That’s why Blackhawk designed its newest last-mile delivery tire to meet the unique needs of drivers on the clock.
Made for the Final Stretch
Last-mile delivery tires face different stress than highway or off-road tires. The constant stopping, tight corners, and variable road conditions wear down tires fast if they’re not built for it. Blackhawk’s new model was engineered for:
- Frequent braking & acceleration: Reinforced tread blocks reduce heat and wear.
- Urban grip: Optimized tread design for wet and dry city roads.
- Heavy loads: Rated for commercial-grade payloads to handle summer volume peaks.
Tire Tip: Prioritize Wheel Balancing & Pressure Checks
Daily stop-and-go traffic can throw your tires out of balance and shorten their lifespan. Wheel balancing helps reduce vibration and uneven wear, while regular pressure checks prevent underinflation—a major contributor to blowouts during summer heat.
