The Dunlop Winter Maxx tire is a studless winter tire with great ice and snow traction for coupes, sedans, minivans and crossovers for the best driving control on winter roads. Dunlop Winter Maxx tires give you much better traction in slush, snow and on ice compared to any all-season tire. They have Dunlop Tire’s most advanced silica-enhanced Nano-Fit Rubber tread rubber compound molded into an asymmetric tread design. This type of tread design helps provide grip on cold dry roads as well. The three-dimensional interlocking zigzag sipes enhanced block rigidity to promote snow and ice traction, but are very stable on dry roads for better handling and longer treadwear. For strength, the Dunlop Winter Maxx tire has an internal structure mad up of JointLess Band (JLB) Technology. These spiral wraps of nylon reinforcement cord over two steel belts and extra, polyester cord in the sidewalls help protect the tire against road hazards. The Dunlop Winter Maxx tire also meets the industry’s severe snow service requirements and are branded with the mountain/snowflake symbol.
The Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring is a touring all season tire made for SUV and passenger vehicles. This model also has some high performance sizes. Cooper offers a 50,000 mile treadwear warranty with its W speed rated sizes and a 70,000 mile treadwear warranty with the H and V rated sizes of this model.
This tire offers excellent all weather traction due to the fully enhanced silica compound that grips the road in dry, wet and winter conditions. The circumferential grooves in the tread pattern help increase the safety of the tire as they disperse water from below the footprint and resist hydroplaning. The tire is safer to use year-round thanks to its excellent road gripping ability.
The tread pattern was designed with a tread wear square indicator in it. The square changes with the wear of the tire and it indicates how much tread the tires still have. This allows the driver to be confident in their vehicle’s performance as they know exactly how much tread the tire still has. The indicator also shows if the alignment on the vehicle is not correct. If the square on one shoulder wears out differently than the other one, then the vehicle’s alignment is not correct.
This model is the first time Cooper used its New Generation Coupled Silica Compound in the manufacture of one of their tires. The tire’s wet traction and handling were greatly affected and improved by the silica compound. The tire also has a longer lasting tread life. The silica rich compound comes into play once more with the tread design. The silica slows down the tread wear rate and ensures even wear across the tread area. As irregular wear is prevented, the tire is usable for a longer period of time, making it more cost-efficient.
The tire also offers enhanced road grip in all weather conditions, which improves its handling and maneuverability. The 3D Micro-Gauges in the tread stabilize the tread area. As the tread blocks are interconnected the tire has a much larger footprint and a maximized road to tire contact. The better road contact improves the handling and the stability of the drive. The tread blocks are stabilized, which provides additional stiffness to the tread. As the tread doesn’t shift, the tire offers a better performance and its cornering ability and power are increased as well.
The steering responsiveness of the model was also increased. The Stabilegde Technology places bumpers in the tread pattern which keep the grooves open to stabilize the tread elements. This offers a better road feel, boosts all weather traction and improves the tire’s stability and handling. The tire is quick and precise in its response, which provides excellent control. As the tire responds well to the commands of the driver, they are able to confidently steer in changing road conditions.
The CS5 Ultra Touring was manufactured with the R-Tech sidewalls, which are computer designed with extended bead fillers and performance compounding. This internal structure helps absorb the road vibrations, offering a safer and more comfortable driving experience.

OVERVIEW
The Nitto Trail Grappler M/T is a mud-terrain tire that’s suitable for use on light trucks and SUVs. Built with a smart tread that’s specially designed to conquer several off-road areas such as dirt, mud, and rocks, and the Trail Grappler M/T utilizes advanced sound analysis equipment to decrease noises that are common during off-road driving. A balanced void ratio constantly removes dirt and mud for strong traction and to protect the casing from damage, and the Trail Grappler M/T’s dual sidewall design allows drivers to select the look that best matches their ride. Additionally, the Trail Grappler M/T is engineered with a reinforced sidewall that guards the tire against punctures, cuts, chips, abrasions, and tears for a longer tread life.
The Mastercraft Courser MXT is a mud terrain all season tire manufactured for light trucks.
The tire promotes excellent all weather traction. The individual tread elements with the variable depth sipes manage to find good grip on dry, wet and winter weather. These tread elements ensure constant road contact throughout the year and guarantee a secure performance. The high void ratio makes hydroplaning impossible that they eliminate water and slush from below the footprint. The tire is pinned for studs, which can be added to the tread to further increase the ice and snow-covered road traction. The maintained road contact makes the driving experience safer in all conditions.
The tread pattern actively increases the mud terrain traction. All the tread elements work together to maintain a firm grip on soft and loose terrain surfaces, even in deeper mud and sand. The tread design features a high void ratio, large, independent tread blocks, stone ejectors and side-biters. They keep the tire’s road grip at all times, which further upgrades the tire’s off-road performance. The special side-biters are located on the upper sidewall and they, along with the variable shoulder tread block edges, improve the traction and road grip on deep and loose terrain surfaces.
The tire prevents damages to its casing. Its self-cleaning nature manages to eliminate mud and snow and eject rocks stuck between its tread elements. This keeps the tire’s road contact at all times and prevents stone retention, which can cause harm to the tire’s casing. Furthermore, the stronger tire compound effectively prevents off-road damage from injuring the casing by resisting punctures, cuts and abrasions. In this manner, the tire’s more durable against the rough off-road terrain.
The tread design’s center blocks maintain the tire’s road contact constantly. The better road contact improves the steering responsiveness and driving stability greatly. The steering becomes faster and more precise while the structure is secured against the drive. The better road contact also manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking, along with the tough, wear-resistant compound, extends the tread life and the tire’s usability significantly.
The intended purpose of Mud Terrain tire types is off-road use. They are not designed for regular highway driving.
