Sumitomo ST717 Tires
The Sumitomo ST717 is a highway terrain, all season tire made for commercial vehicles. It was made to be mounted on all axle positions. The tread design’s ribbed pattern closely follows the road surface in all weather conditions. In this manner, the model significantly improves its steering responsiveness and driving stability. This upgrades the driver’s control over the vehicle and improves the year round driving safety.
The tread design and the ideal tire compound also work together to increase the length of the tread life. The symmetric ribbed pattern maintains the road contact and evenly distributes the driving pressure along the tread area. This avoids irregular wear formations across the tread area. The durable compound’s wear-resistant rubber materials slow the tread wear rate down, significantly elongating the usability and service life.
The Sumitomo ST717 upgrades the durability. The tire features a durable internal structure that maintains the ideal tire shape under the load and driving pressure affecting the model. The ideal shape prevents the tire’s deformation under the pressure, increasing its load carrying and withstanding ability. The result is the model’s higher load capacity. This also resists damage. It avoids cuts, punctures and other damage from shortening the service life by minimizing its downtime. The optimal tread grooves manage to prevent stone retention by ejecting rocks stuck between the tread elements.
- ControllabilityThe tread design’s maintained road contact upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability.
- Longer tread lifeThe tread design and durable compound increase the length of the tread life by ensuring a slower and even wear.
- DurabilityThe reinforced internal structure increases the load capacity and helps prevent damage from harm the casing.
