Sumitomo HTR Enhance LX2 235/45R18 98VOVERVIEWThe Sumitomo HTR Enhance LX2 is an all-season tire that’s designed for use on coupes, sedans, and minivans and features bending sipes in the center block that enhance stability and highway response. Backed by an up to 90,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty depending on the tire’s speed rating, the HTR Enhance LX2’s 3D zigzag sipes bite into the road to improve traction in wet and winter weather conditions.
The tire upgrades the all weather traction. The asymmetric tread design and the durable all season compound boost the dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound’s silica-infused rubber materials maintain their flexibility in various conditions. The asymmetric tread’s optimal pattern improves the number of biting edges gripping the road surface, which enhances the dry, wet and winter surface traction and guarantees high driving safety levels. The tread’s circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint. This combination enhances the year round driving safety. With 45,000-mile limited treadwear protection
OVERVIEW
Designed as a high performance summer tire, the Bridgestone Turanza T005A is used as original equipment for select vehicles from Volkswagen, Volvo, BMW, and Lexus. The Turanza T005A delivers excellent traction and handling in wet or dry weather, with a specialized summer rubber compound, circumferential and lateral grooves to resist hydroplaning, and a stiff shoulder for great cornering. Additionally, select sizes feature Bridgestone’s B-Silent design, with a layer of sound-absorbing foam in the subtread for a quiet ride.
OVERVIEW
The General Tire AltiMAX RT45 is a long-lasting, all-season touring tire for coupes, sedans, minivans, and crossovers that’s backed by up to 75,000-miles of limited manufacturer tread life coverage. Offering drivers reliable braking on wet roads, the AltiMAX RT45 utilizes Generals’ Replacement Tire Monitor which features letters in the tread that wear off to read “REPLACE TIRE” when the tire wears to 2/32 of tread depth, indicating a tire change is needed.
OVERVIEW
The LS-07 H/T from Lancaster is an all season tire that’s built for use on CUVs, SUVs, and light trucks. Four wide grooves within the tread force water out of the tire to reduce the risk of hydroplaning on wet roads, and the LS-07 H/T’s dense siping creates additional biting edges that boost traction and performance in dry, wet, and light winter weather conditions.
OVERVIEW
Falken’s Espia EPZ II is a winter tire that’s designed for use on CUVs and SUVs in the harshest winter weather conditions. 3D Canyon Sipe Technology creates additional biting edges for better braking on icy roads plus strong grip on wet and snowy roads, and the Espia EPZ II’s specialized rubber compound keeps the tire flexible for consistent performance in frigid temperatures. Additionally, the Espia EPZ II features wide lateral grooves that work with wide pockets to promote snow on snow contact and better traction in slushy or deep snow conditions.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
OVERVIEW
The Toyo Open Country C/T is an all terrain, all season tire manufactured for commercial grade light trucks.
The tire provides great all weather traction. The special all season tire compound and the aggressive staggered tread design boost the dry, wet and winter weather road grip. The durable compound ensures traction throughout the year and it maintains its optimal flexibility even in colder temperatures, while the tread elements find firm grip even in ice and snow. The tire is pinned for studs. #15 studs can be added for extra grip in winter weather. The model received the three mountain peak and snowflake symbol for its capability of handling severe winter conditions. When driving on-road, the wide grooves and open shoulder design prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tires footprint to further increase the wet weather traction.
The aggressive tread design features staggered tread blocks, an open shoulder design, an optimized sidewall pattern and an additional siping detail that work together to boost the all terrain traction. In this manner, the model is capable of handling all soft, loose and uneven terrain surfaces and it ensures a safer off-road performance. The tread blocks find grip on rugged terrain surfaces, while the sidewall pattern enables the tires forward motion when driving through deep mud or loose dirt. The deep grooves, staggered tread blocks and open shoulders keep a clean footprint. They eliminate mud and snow stuck between the tread elements, which prevents the tires footprint from being blocked from its contact with the road surface. As a result, the tire does not lose its traction during off-road performance, which enhances its driving safety.
The model ensures excellent safety by preventing damage from harming the tires casing. The tread designs self-cleaning nature, with the stone ejecting ribs, eliminates rocks from between the tread elements. This effectively prevents stone retention which can puncture the casing. The special durable tire compound also ensures a safer performance. It resists cuts and chipping from damaging the tread area and shortening the tires service life. The improved damage resistance promotes a secure driving experience both on- and off-road.
The Open Country C/T sports a reinforced internal structure that boosts the tires controllability and durability. The stronger construction stabilizes the tires structure, which allows it to maintain a constant road contact. The better road contact boosts the steering responsiveness and accuracy, allowing the driver to confidently control the vehicle throughout the year. The reinforced internal structure upgrades the tires load and driving durability. The models shape does not deform under the driving and load pressure affecting it. As a result, the tire is capable of carrying and withstanding heavy loads with ease and it ensures a secure performance.
The Roadian CT8 HL maintains optimal rigidity balance by including a half depth transverse groove in the center block. Also square shaped dimples in the tread prevents stress, resulting in improved durability and tread life.
The Ironman All Country M/T is a mud terrain, all season tire manufactured for light trucks. The tire utilizes the aggressive tread design to upgrade the mud terrain performance. The staggered block pattern and the high void ratio work together to improve the soft, loose and uneven terrain traction. The detailed sidewall pattern further increases the sideway biting edges needed to improve the mud traction. The All Country M/T helps to prevent damage to the tread and casing. The aggressive tread design and the stronger internal structure work together to boost the driving safety levels. The model also guarantees a safer all-weather traction. The tread design and the durable compound prevent the tread’s chipping, cracking and tearing, elongating the overall service life.
