Samson ST Extra ST 225/90D16 110/105K E (10 Ply) Trailer Tire

Samson ST Extra. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All season performance; Enhanced controllability; Improved load durability; . OVERVIEW: The Samson ST Extra is a highway terrain, all season tire made 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 model ensures the tire’s excellent performance on highway terrains. The ribbed tread design closely follows the road surface at all times. It improves steering responsiveness and towing stability. In other words, the steering response time becomes faster and more precise to the towing vehicle’s commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting it. These elements increase the driver’s control over the vehicle, which offers a safe driving experience.This tire provides great year-round performance. This ribbed tread design firmly grips the surface with extra biting edges, keeping road contact in all conditions. Also, the all season compound maintains flexibility in warm and cold temperatures. As a result, this combination boosts traction in dry, wet, and winter conditions. On the other hand, the optimal grooves help the tire resist hydroplaning in wet-weather conditions.The Samson ST Extra improved load and driving durability. The robust internal structure and the rubber compound keep the optimal tire shape under load and driving pressure. They protect the tire against deformations, which boosts its load-carrying capacity and handling power. This withstanding ability makes this tire a great choice for trailer applications.This is a bias ply or diagonal tire. Due to the tire’s internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller diagonal tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire’s non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire’s ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability.The photo is a representation of the tire’s possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application. 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.
