HIGHWAY TIRES
Highway tires are made for SUVs and light truck vehicles. They can also be manufactured for commercial vehicles. However, their main point is their strength. These tires are intended to be used on larger vehicles, which is why passenger sizes are not manufactured to be Highway Tires. Their construction and tread design are intended to give these tires better durability.
These tires usually feature a symmetric ribbed tread design. The symmetric ribs along the tread area optimize the surface contact during the tire’s performance, increasing its controllability. This tread pattern design enables the tires to provide a smoother and stabilized on-road drive. As a result, Highway tires are easy to handle, which greatly upgrades the overall driving safety levels.
Highway tires are designed for durability. These models are intended for on-road use with heavier loads. Larger vehicles weigh more to start with and the weight of its passengers and load must also be calculated when choosing tires. Due to this, Highway tires are manufactured with strengthened internal structures, which keep the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure. This greatly increases the load capacity, while providing better performing durability to the tire. The result is the slight off-road terrain traction and durability Highway tires are able to provide. The reinforced construction protects the tire from deformation during its lifetime, offering safer driving conditions.
