Tire Structure
- Rim protect bar protects the rim from scuffing while preventing the sidewall from “rolling over” the rim flange.
* Sidewall shape optimized to bend gently-reducing stresses and improving ride comfort. - Sidewall compound specially formulated to resist ozone, aging, cracking and abrasion.
- Nylon belt overlay provides strength to the tread area and restricts belt motion-the key to high performance handling.
- Two extra-wide high tensile steel belts give the tire crisp handling and flex to absorb road shocks.
