Kenda Loadstar K371 ST 4.8/4.00-8 B (4 Ply) Boat Trailer Tire

Kenda Loadstar K371. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Trailer tire, NOT FOR LIGHT TRUCKS; Enhanced controllability; Fuel efficient performance; Upgraded load durability; . OVERVIEW: The Kenda Loadstar K371 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for trailers. This tire is NOT MEANT TO BE MOUNTED ON LIGHT TRUCKS, as its construction will not support the weight and performing style of such vehicles. It can ONLY BE MOUNTED ON TRAILERS.The tire features a flat footprint and a symmetric ribbed computer-optimized tread design which maintains a constant surface contact throughout the tire’s performance. This enables the tire to improve the steering responsiveness and the driving stability significantly. The result is the tire’s faster and more precise steering response to the towing vehicle’s instructions, while its stability is secured during the drive. The better control over the tires ensures the towing vehicle’s control over the trailer, making its job easier.The optimal tread design also enhances the load durability. The computer-optimized symmetric ribbed tread design’s ideal surface contact enables even pressure distribution along the tread area. This prevents excessive load pressure accumulation in one area. Instead, the equally circulated pressure makes the tire’s load carrying and withstanding durability better. It prevents the tire shape’s deformation under the load pressure, which improves the load capacity.The Loadstar K371 offers a fuel efficient performance. The tire increases the all weather traction, which eases the driving pressure off the tire, minimizing the rolling resistance affecting the tire. The rolling resistance is the driving pressure affecting the tire which determines the vehicle’s needed fuel intake to keep the tires in motion. By lowering the rolling resistance, the tire manages to decrease the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels, which guarantees a fuel efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience. This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction. 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.
