The commercial tire Continental Hybrid LS3 is installed on the steering axle. It has a wide range of applications, as it is well-suited for use in regional and highway transportation. It is characterized by one of the best fuel-saving properties and service life in its class.
The tread pattern features reduced drainage groove width. This allowed for an increase in the size of the ribs and, as a result, the area in contact with the road surface. At the same time, the pressure on it is distributed evenly, and its level is reduced. As a result, traction on dry pavement and its stability are improved, and uneven wear is reduced. In complex weather conditions, efficiency is achieved through numerous lamellas. Elements of straight and sinusoidal shape form a large number of edges across the contact patch. This significantly improves the efficiency of the tread when braking on wet pavement.
The tread is made of a compound that contains new-generation technical carbon. This increases resistance to abrasive wear and reduces rolling resistance.
Key features:
- installed on the steering axle;
- reduced groove width increases the contact patch;
- the monolithic structure of the tread ribs improves handling accuracy, reduces rolling resistance, and improves directional stability;
- the rubber compound with new-generation technical carbon gives the tread resistance to wear, punctures, and cuts, and improves fuel efficiency;
- sinusoidal and straight lamellas, oriented transversely, reduce the braking distance on wet pavement.
