GT Radial GTR955 235/75R17.5 143/141K H (16 Ply) AS A/S All Season Tire

GT Radial GTR955. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Improved controllability; Upgraded load durability; Longer-lasting tread life; . OVERVIEW: The GT Radial GTR955 is a highway terrain, all season tire made for commercial vehicles. This model is made to be mounted on trailer axle positions.Great year-round performance is provided with this tread design and all season compound. The optimal tread can closely follow the road surface, while the compound keeps the rubber flexible in summer and winter temperatures. As a result, these elements work together to improve dry, wet, and winter traction. On the other hand, the model has wide circumferential grooves, which prevent hydroplaning. These grooves eliminate water and slush from the footprint in wet conditions.The ribbed tread pattern and its close road contact improve controllability. This tread pattern strongly grips the road surface and upgrades steering responsiveness and driving stability. At the same time, outer ribs increase cornering and maneuvering during the performance. This model also offers excellent load and driving durability. The reinforced internal structure keeps the ideal tire shape under load and driving pressure, enabling the tire to carry and withstand heavy loads. This makes the model great for commercial applications.The GT Radial GTR955 also extends its service life and usability. The ideal tread design and the wear-resistance compound avoid irregular and premature wear along the tread area. This ribbed tread pattern can evenly distribute driving pressure along the tread area, while the compound slows the treadwear rate down. As a result, these elements guarantee a longer-lasting tread life. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
