Sumitomo ST918 Tires
The Sumitomo ST918 is a highway terrain, all season tire made for commercial vehicles. It was made to be mounted on the drive axle. The symmetric ribbed tread design and all season compound increase the all weather traction. The tread boosts the grip on dry, wet and winter weather road surface conditions, while the compound keeps the rubber flexibility.
The tread design’s optimal pattern promotes a longer lasting tread life. The tread design enhances the grip on the road surface and allows the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tire’s footprint with the optimal siping detail. In this manner, the tire lengthens the tread life and usability by actively preventing irregular wear formations across the tread area.
The Sumitomo ST918 increases the load and driving durability. The tire’s reinforced internal full steel belt structure maintains the ideal tire shape at all times. As it does not allow the tire to deform under the load and driving pressure affecting it, the construction boosts its durability. It ensures a higher load capacity, by boosting the load carrying and withstanding ability in versatile weather conditions. The optimal tire shape also ensures a close road contact, which improves the controllability. As a result, the model enhances the steering responsiveness and the driving stability significantly, ensuring the driver’s full control over the vehicle.
- DurabilityThe strengthened full steel belt structure upgrades the load and driving durability by preventing the tire’s deformation under the pressure.
- Longer tread lifeThe tread’s road contact ensures even pressure distribution which prevents irregular wear formations across the tread area.
