The Michelin XDY tire is a truck model used on driving axles of vehicles, providing exceptional traction both on and off the road, as well as increased wear resistance.
The tire is manufactured on the latest equipment using modern materials, so it meets all quality standards. The development of the tread pattern was carried out with the help of computer modeling, so all the blocks are optimally selected. As a result, the tire has excellent handling and passability.
In the center of the tread, there are two rows of blocks that have increased directional stability. The massive blocks located in the shoulder area have achieved excellent self-cleaning and traction on various roads. Special lamellae, together with longitudinal zigzag-shaped grooves, help to combat aquaplaning and increase traction on wet roads.
Compared to other tires in this category, the Michelin XDY tire has a 10% increase in mileage, more efficient water removal from the contact patch, and is perfect for retreading, and the sidewalls with a reinforced design reduce the risk of damage.
Technical features of the Michelin XDY tire
- the tread has an increased width, which has increased passability by 10%;
- a special directional tread pattern allows for quick removal of dirt, water, and slush from the contact patch;
- Co-Ex Technology – the tread layer is resistant to tears, cuts, while the lower layer reduces heat buildup;
- the use of four metal cord breakers and shock-absorbing pads has protected the carcass;
- the increased thickness of the sidewall has reduced the risk of tears, damage, and cuts.
